"Having already seen two Enzo Fernandez goals rightly chalked off, Chelsea finally went in front when Marc Cucurella's cross was inadvertantly bundled in by Barca defender Kounde. Despite a strong start against the Catalan giants, the Blues' frustration was growing when they were twice denied the chance to go ahead, but three minutes after Enzo's header was ruled out for the second time, a goal was finally allowed to stands."
"Enzo sent Stamford Bridge into raptures after only three minutes when he slammed the ball home after defender Wesley Fofana had found him inside the box in what looked like the perfect start against the Catalan giants. But those celebrations were stopped when referee Slavko Vincic gestured to indicate that he spotted a handball by Fofana when he brought the ball down before getting to the byline and finding Enzo, a decision which was confirmed by VAR."
