Chelsea ace involved in heated exchange during the Blues’ encounter with Wolves

Things You Missed from Wolves vs Chelsea

It has been a feisty affair at Molineux as Wolves and Chelsea both aim to get their first points on the board in the 2024/25 Premier League season. Goals from Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer were cancelled out by strikes by Matheus Cunha and Jorgen Strand Larsen as the two sides went into the break tied at 2-2.

Tensions were already high ahead of kick-off after Noni Madueke posted an insulting message about the city of Wolverhampton before quickly deleting it. That appeared to set the tone for a game that has almost been treated like a cup final, made worse when the winger then put the Blues ahead at the start of the second half, before adding his second and Chelsea’s fourth before the hour.

Just four minutes after, Madueke secured a second half hat-trick to really rub salt in the wounds for the black country outfit With so much going on, here are some of the things fans may have missed.

Cunha Celebrates In Front of Jackson

The two strikers clashed after the Brazilian’s goal

After Nicolas Jackson put the Blues ahead inside two minutes, the hosts looked to get themselves back into the game. They came close to doing so when Matheus Cunha equalised just after a quarter of an hour, only to be ruled out for offside. The forward didn’t have to wait long for his moment of glory though.

Just 10 minutes later, the 25-year-old was on hand to finish off a glorious move with ease to pull his side level. That wasn’t the end of the drama, as Cunha had something to say to one of his opponents by the time he got back to his own half.

Footage showed the former Atletico Madrid man clashing with Chelsea scorer Jackson, gesturing to him to keep talking. The Senegalese attacker had to be held back by some of his opponents, while Cunha continued to walk off seemingly

unbothered.
