Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly made an abrupt exit during his team’s 2-0 loss to Manchester City on Sunday. The incident unfolded after Manchester City’s Mateo Kovacic scored the second goal of the match, prompting Boehly to leave his executive box in frustration.
The game began with Erling Haaland putting Manchester City ahead with a precise finish in the first half. Despite Chelsea’s efforts to equalize, the match tilted further in City’s favor when Kovacic, who once played for Chelsea, powered a shot past Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. The goal sealed City’s victory and left Chelsea without a chance to recover.
Throughout the match, Chelsea had several opportunities to score, but none of their attempts managed to find the back of the net. City’s defense and goalkeeper proved too strong for the Blues, resulting in a disappointing performance for the home team.
Boehly’s departure was captured by television cameras, highlighting the tension and disappointment felt by Chelsea’s ownership. The reaction was a clear indication of the frustration stemming from the team’s inability to secure a win against one of the Premier League’s top clubs.
