Chelsea faced off against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium earlier tonight as they looked to secure a good result in the London derby. The Blues made a sloppy start to the game as they conceded the opening goal in the fourth minute when Leandro Trossard found the back of the net. Mauricio Pochettino’s men failed to make a comeback and went into the half-time interval 1-0 down on the scoreline.
White scored again for the Gunners in the 52nd minute before Kai Havertz put the contest to bed in the 57th minute. The German went on to score again in the 65th minute before White added another goal just five minutes later. The contest finished with Chelsea suffering a humiliating 5-0 loss in the London derby.
