A visit from Bournemouth and António Silva to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea did not start well this Saturday of Premier League. This is because, after a goal in the first minute, there was one more and with the right to a misfortune of the Portuguese central.

 

The former Benfica player was released at first, but at three minutes of play he made a mistake that gave the 2-0 to the London blues, after a shot by Morgan Rogers who, despite going towards the goal, was on the defense line of the guardian of the Cherries.

It should be recalled that António Silva left Benfica for a fixed amount of EUR 25 million, plus EUR 5 million by fulfilling objectives related to his sports performance throughout his contract.

Check out the video below and see the unlucky moment of the international central defense by Portugal, after trying to cut the shot and end up putting the ball at the bottom of the Bournemouth goal.
