Chelsea goalkeeper Courtois acted decisively!
With lightning-fast reflexes, Courtois quickly positioned himself in front of Jordan Ayew in just one step.
In this split second, Ayew chose not to take an immediate shot. Instead, he displayed remarkable composure.
The next moment, Ayew spotted Bony's movement on the right.
Without hesitation, Ayew delivered a precise pass.
In an instant, the ball reached the feet of forward Bony!
Then!
Bony made a quick decision—opting for a decisive volley.
From this position, Bony had every opportunity to score.
But!
Bony's shot veered wildly off course, sailing past the baseline.
Yes, you read that right—this shot missed entirely and went out of play.
The outcome was truly unbelievable.
In the stands, Chelsea fans were left completely stunned by what they had just witnessed.
They couldn't believe their eyes.
Of course, for Chelsea, this was excellent news.
Some fans in the stands began jeering loudly.
"Isn't this hilarious?"
"How can someone miss that shot?"
"What is Bony even doing out there?"
"It's unbelievable!"
"Is this really Bony's level of play?"
"It's clear—Chelsea is destined to win tonight!"
"Our opponents are just not up to the task!"
"Victory belongs to us, Chelsea!"
On Swansea's bench, head coach Paul Clement was equally perplexed.
Although visibly frustrated, Clement chose to clap for his players in support.
Despite the disappointing result, Swansea's offense had shown some promise in this instance.
At this point, there were only ten minutes left in the first half.
Time was running out for Swansea.
If they hoped to have any chance of earning points tonight, the first step was clear: they needed to score as soon as possible.
For Swansea, a single goal before halftime could change everything.
But achieving that was easier said than done.
Every Swansea player knew the challenge they faced.
In the following moments, Swansea's attacks became sharper and more focused.
In midfield, Renato Sanchez received the ball and made a decisive choice.
With an accurate long pass, he sent the football to Ki Sung-yueng on the left wing.
As everyone knows, Ki Sung-yueng isn't particularly known for his speed.
His strength lies in his passing and vision.
Upon receiving the ball, Ki Sung-yueng executed a textbook pass.
With perfect precision, the football landed at Bony's feet.
At this moment, Bony had repositioned himself to the left wing, just outside the penalty area, in order to receive the ball.
Bony had only one goal in mind—
to regain control of the game.
