COVID-HIT Chelsea were unable to break down Wolves at Molineux.
Daniel Podence tapped the ball into the net from Marcal’s cross early on but the goal was ruled out by VAR for offside.
Minutes later, Wolves were even more aggrieved as the ball struck N’Golo Kante’s arm when Podence would have otherwise been through on goal.
Christian Pulisic went closest in the second half, but Chelsea couldn’t find a winner and are now six points behind leaders Man City who won at Newcastle.

Another goalless draw between these two clubs for the second consecutive game running and although it got a little more exciting towards the end, on a whole, it was quite a disappointing spectacle.
But one thing for certain is that Bruno Lage will be happier of the two managers.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Shot blocked Kante!
90+3. Blues skipper Cesar Azpilicueta did well to direct a searching ball to the feet of N’Golo Kante but instead of the Frenchman to find someone in a better position, he went for glory.
And Conor Coady yet again go himself in the way to surely rescue a point for Wolves.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Danger!
90+2. N’Golo Kante played a lovely ball over the top to Mason Mount who almost found a blue shirt in the Wolves box.
But guess came running out of the goal to come and clean up?
Jose Sa.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
90. The visitors are literally throwing the kitchen sink at Wolves now and the hosts have everyone back defending.
It’s attack vs defence.
Three minutes of additional time has been added on
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Chance Rudiger!
87. With Antonio Rudiger’s fine form this season, you would have put your house on the German international to make the net buldge.
But his header painfully goes wide.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
86. Marcos Alonso has just earned his side a corner and the Blues have decided to push a number of bodies forward for this one.
This is getting intriguing.
Mr captain fantastic Cesar Azpilicueta

Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Big big save Sa!
78. Spanish international Marcos Alonso sensationally picked out Christian Pulisic who found himself in acres of space behind the Wolves back-line.
Then all the American had to do was stay composed and pick his spote but Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa stayed big and kept Pulisic’ shot out.
Wow, incredible.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Great block!
77. This time it was Mason Mount trying to turn provider but for World Cup winner N’Golo Kante.
However Conor Coady threw himself in front of the Frenchman’s shot denying Kante of a goal on his return to first team action.
I think Chelsea have heard about the news in Manchester so they have started to pick up the pace.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Offside again!
74. Mateo Kovacic done what he does best by driving with ball forward through the middle of the park.
But by the time the Croatian finally decided to release the ball to Mason Mount, the English young starlet wandered offside.

There is less than 20 minutes to go in Wolves vs Chelsea and the deadlock is yet to be broken.
Whereas Manchester City are getting the job done over Newcastle United and if it stays like this, Thomas Tuchel’s men will fall even further behind in the title race.

Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Nearly!
69. Ki-Jana Hoever beat a couple men before directing a beautiful ball across the box which would be any strikers dream.
But neither Raul Jimenez or Daniel Podence were able to read what the right winger was trying to do so it was easily intercepted.
That’s more like it though.
Mist at the Molineux Stadium
This could be the reason as to why the players aren’t being able to produce any magic.
Maybe they can barely see.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Chelsea sub
65. I think Thomas Tuchel has realised the game needs to be freshened up so the German has decided to drag off Hakim Ziyech who has been anonymous today, for Mateo Kovacic.
- Hakim Ziyech – OFF
- Mateo Kovacic – ON
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
63. Ladies and gentleman I will be totally honest with you, neither team are looking as if they are going to score right now.
There seems to be no urgency in the play.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
59. The game is becoming very stop start now.
David Coote has had to blow his whistle at least three times in the last couple of minutes due to both players committing silly fouls.
Wolves are still doing well in stopping the Blues playing their game but it needs one moment of magic to bring this game to life.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea – Stay onside Alonso!
56. The Blues took a quick throw-in which caught Wolves sleeping a little which then led to Hakim Ziyech carving out a pass finding the dashing Marcus Alonso.
But the Spaniard mistimed his run otherwise he would have been in for a huge chance.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
53. The visitors are slowly beginning to take control of possession again despite Wolves’ start to the second half.
However, there hasn’t been nothing entirely threatening on either goal so far.
This game needs a goal to wake it up.
Edouard Mendy the dragon within
Yes ladies and gentleman, it really is that cold in the midlands.
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
48. Well read by Thiago Silva as the Brazilian thumps the ball away from goal using his head.
That is what Chelsea paid the big bucks for because that was a teasing cross.
