Mudryk accused of 'ball watching' during Adeyemi's winner vs Chelsea - spotted
Chelsea went down to a 1-0 loss to Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 clash.
The only goal was scored by Karim Adeyemi, who raced past everyone and dribbled past Enzo Fernandez and Kepa Arrizabalaga to score in the second half.
However, it appears that Mykhailo Mudryk could've done better to prevent it.
Studying that goal Adeyemi scored, turns out it was Mudryk's fault. Man was supposed to be marking the scorer and he has the pace too. Man just lost concentration and was ball watching. Sad. He'll learn tho.

As the ball was cleared out of the Dortmund box, Mudryk was the closest to tracking back and stopping Adeyemi.
Instead, he ran back at moderate speed and even saw Thiago Silva sprint past him at the half-way line.
He opted against using his lightning pace to charge down Adeyemi and give more protection to Enzo.
Ultmately, the Dortmund forward went past everyone to score and give his side the win.
