Chelsea beat Bournemouth 2-1, though they made the closing stages harder than they needed to. Caicedo opened the scoring in the 17th minute, and Sterling doubled the lead a minute into the second half. Then, sixty seconds later, Badiashile turned the ball into his own net, and a comfortable evening briefly became a nervous one. Chelsea held on. Five players were booked, the sort of tally that says the game had an edge without ever boiling over. It was not their cleanest performance, but two goals to one is two goals to one. Chelsea take the points, and the slightly frayed nerves, home with them. Bournemouth will rue the chances that came after.
