However, the game effectively turned on its head in 13 second-half minutes; firstly quick-fire goals from Jamaal Lascelles and Joelinton, the latter essentially a gift from compatriot Thiago Silva before Blues captain Reece James picked up a second yellow card.<\/p>\n<p>James was one of five Chelsea players to enter Simon Hooper&#8217;s book with such indiscipline certain to displease their manager who ironically was severing a touchline ban. Going down a man left the Londoners right there for the pickings and Newcastle, who are currently enduring an injury crisis, weren&#8217;t going to pass up this opportunity as Anthony Gordon scored his fifth Premier League goal this season.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">CAPTAIN. ?\u00a9\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FCusoPXS1T\">pic.twitter.com\/FCusoPXS1T<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Newcastle United FC (@NUFC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NUFC\/status\/1728450977173283115?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 25, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Gordon&#8217;s effort was a landmark moment as it meant Chelsea had conceded four goals in consecutive Premier League games for the very first time, conceding 4+ goals as many times as in their previous 56 matches in the competition (two).
