Pulisic went on a run and squared to the edge of the area. There was drama at the close of the first half when Palace, under pressure (as ever) from Mount, played a pass into the hands of Guaita. Thiago Silva survived a VAR check for a possible red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity after he had handled the ball on the floor (and been booked). Chilwell shot over and Havertz had a shot blocked but those apart, it was proving a sterile passage of play for good chances. Four minutes later, Thiago was making a big difference at the other end with an assist for the Chelsea equaliser. [Graham Potter](/en/teams/profile/graham-potter)’s first game in charge, way back in the middle of September. Sterling soon after had two bites at the cherry after a James low ball in came his way. Fresh from scoring his first goal of the season, with England on Monday, Mount was visibly angry with himself for missing at the near post.

"On a personal level, it's just nice to get the first win under the belt. The deadline for Gareth Southgate to name his squad is October 19. We've edged it but it probably could have gone either way in fairness." "The fact that he's quite a way away from the goal has probably helped us a little bit but I can understand Patrick's frustration.
