Brandt Bronico, who playedfor UNC Charlotte, leads the team in tackles from his central midfield positionand ranks third in minutes played. Rookie Ben Bender, the first pick in the2022 MLS Super Draft, has 3 goals and 3 assists this season. Goalkeeper KristijanKahlina has 5 clean sheets and a 72.7% save percentage, and Charlotte’s 23goals against ranks as the fifth-fewest in the Eastern Conference. It took a tip-over save to prevent Charlotte scoring a freak own goal at the start of the second half after Ethan Ampadu, one of 10 outfield changes at the interval and playing in midfield, had bundled the ball goalwards.
The Blues prepare to build on a season that ended with astrong run of form. Since January 23rd, Chelsea finished inleague play and in cup play with the draws coming in penalty-kick finallosses to Liverpool. In international play, during that span, the Blues went5-1-1 with the only loss coming in the Champions League to Real Madrid and thedraw resulting in a penalty-kick win over Villareal in the UEFA Super Cup. The match ended at 1-1 as neither side was able to find a winning goal late on. The match went to penalties, which was odd for a preseason match, but nonetheless has been the norm this year for North American club tours. The weaknesses of Mendy in goal as a penalty stopper were on display again, and Chelsea lost the shootout 5-3.

Over the years, Chelsea FC has seen its fair share of triumphs and struggles. From winning numerous league titles and domestic cups to experiencing managerial changes and ownership transitions, the club’s history is a tapestry of highs and lows. Management at Mellow Mushroom in Uptown said they welcomed and prepared for the extra boost to business. Charlotte FC made all five of their penalty kicks, while a miss from Chelsea's Conor Gallagher sealed their fate and gave Charlotte the win. Chelsea FC is an English professional football club that plays in the Premier League in Fulham, London.
Charlotte win!
Edouard Mendy was given his first match action of pre-season as part of the starting line-up and Pulisic, in his homeland, was also in the 11 that began the game. Only Thiago Silva and Hakim Ziyech were in the first-half side for both the Club America game at the weekend and this one. An equaliser from the penalty spot in the last seconds of open play, followed by a shoot-out that did not go the Blues way, denied us what looked set to be a second win of our USA-based pre-season.
Still no word on any potential delay here in Charlotte, but highly unlikely that it starts on time given lightning policies that require a 30 minute wait after every new lightning strike. We'll see what changes are in store for the second half from both sides, but the first 45 minutes were entertaining, and the fans here in Charlotte got to see a goal from the USMNT captain. Matt Freese, coming off back-to-back clean sheets, finished with three saves for New York City. — Charlotte FC announced Wednesday that the club will host English Premier League side Chelsea FC for a friendly match on July 20 at Bank of America Stadium.

Now entering its eighth year, the Florida Cup / FC Series is a global platform that combines sports, music and entertainment.
Ziyech pulling the strings
While most games end after 90 minutes and a brief stoppage period, this friendly game was extended to finish under penalty kicks to decide a winner. Charlotte FC tied the match 1-1 in stoppage time in the 91st minute with a penalty kick and took home the victory after winning the penalty kick shootout 5-3. Kenedy sets the midfielder up but Gallagher scuffs his shot and it's easy for the goalkeeper.
Here's all of the information you need to know about the upcoming fixture. Thomas Tuchel will hope that his team will be able to prevail against Charlotte, who were only formed in 2019. Michy Batshuayi was involved as he turned and fired towards goal.
“We were good for 80 meters of the pitch, but were not good enough in the final 20 meters,” said Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel after the match. “Today is on us, they showed courage and belief, man-marking us one-on-one. Whenever you give the stadium belief like we did anything can happen”With the final kick of the game, 16-year-old Charlotte FC academy product Brian Romero won a penalty via a Trevoh Chalobah handball. That saw Daniel Rios strike from the spot and level the scoreline at 1-1.
It is worth noting the penalty shootout was marred by one of the worst penalties I have observed at the professional level in my time as a fan. Gallagher took the penalty with a stuttered run up to the ball, and then hit it right down the middle with such little pace on the ball that it could only be described as a slow roller straight to the keeper. It was reminiscent of a bad, under hit pass, let alone a penalty shootout attempt. I was shocked and this missed penalty ultimately undid the Blues as Mendy did not to contest or stop any of the Charlotte penalties. Club captain Christian Fuchs will surely get a run-out, likely from the start, to give fans a look at the former Premier League player and to help the younger players stay strong against a talented opponent.
