Moises Caicedo scored first for Chelsea, and Liverpool's Cody Gakpo equalized shortly after the break, but Chelsea's Estevao scored in the 95th minute to secure the win.

During the game, Konate, a 26-year-old centre-back, was replaced by Curtis Jones in the 56th minute due to a slight injury.

Slot explained that Konate felt a slight issue with his quad and decided to take him off as a precaution.

Slot also mentioned that the team's performance improved after midfielder Ryan Gravenberch dropped back to play alongside Virgil van Dijk.
