Edouard Mendy: Chelsea GK gifts Leeds the lead with epic howler
Chelsea’s Edouard Mendy gifted Leeds United the lead in their Premier League clash at Elland Road on Sunday afternoon.
Mendy, who has been one of the best goalkeepers in the world, had a moment to forget in the 33rd minute.
Chelsea won possession back and Thiago Silva passed the ball back to Mendy.
Mendy had Brenden Aaronson charging him down but, instead of hoofing the ball clear, he tried to go around his opponent.
That proved to be a bad, bad mistake.
Mendy was dispossessed by Aaronsen and Leeds’ summer signing had the easy task of rolling the ball into an empty net.
