A pair of trophy-toting Londoners stalled Sunday when Chelsea drew Crystal Palace 0-0 at Stamford Bridge. It's a fine point for Palace but the Eagles may lament an overturned Eberechi Eze free kick goal.
Referee England overturned his on-field decision, but explained that the free-kick was ruled out because Guéhi, after successfully shifting Caicedo, had moved to within a metre of the Chelsea wall, which is an infringement in itself. The goal wasn’t ruled out because of the Palace captain’s contact with the Ecuadorian.
