Chelsea suffered their first defeat of the new Premier League season in a dreadful afternoon for Thomas Tuchel at Elland Road against Leeds United. The hosts ran out 3-0 winners on the day, with the Blues looking lackluster throughout the game.
Jesse Marsch's pressing style proved problematic from the opening stages, with the first goal coming straight from their diligent work off the ball. Brenden Aaronson put pressure on goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, who failed to clear his lines in time, leaving the USMNT international an easy tap-in.
Just a few minutes later, that lead was doubled. Jack Harrison's free-kick beat found Rodrigo at the near-post, with his flick on beating absolutely everyone into the back of the net.
