Chelsea secured a dramatic return to Champions League football after a thrilling comeback win over Fulham in their final league game.
The Blues were given an early scare when Alex Iwobi opened the scoring for Fulham in the 20th minute, momentarily casting doubt on Chelsea’s top-four hopes.
But Chelsea turned the tide late in the second half. Tyrique George continued his impressive form, grabbing the equaliser in the 83rd minute; his second goal in three games following his strike in the Europa Conference League first-leg win at Legia Warsaw.
Pedro Neto then sealed the deal with a stoppage-time winner, sparking wild celebrations at Stamford Bridge and confirming Chelsea’s place in next season’s UEFA Champions League, as per the final league standings.
