Chelsea(3)

The first half ended with the score 1-0. Southampton got to break Chelsea's net through Kazuki's goal. Entering the break, the coaches of both teams was began their respective instructions to their teams. Mourinho clearly scolded the Chelsea players.

There were many opportunities for Chelsea to score but unfortunately they failed to take them. In a normal game, throwing away chances like that was not a problem but in facing Southampton who have a ferocious striker like Kazuki then throwing away opportunity was a fatal blunder.

Having a striker like Kazuki made Southampton more capable to take advantage from every opportunity. This was reflected in the data in the first half Chelsea completed 7 shots on target while Southampton only 3. Chelsea also recorded 57 possession balls compared to 43. You could say Chelsea really dominated from all aspects except goals.
