Chukwuemeka scores twice as Chelsea defeat Brighton in friendly

Chelsea boss Graham Potter faced former club Brighton in a behind-closed-doors friendly on Saturday.

The Blues were due to take on Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. But the match was postponed due to a lack of police resources following the death of The Queen.

Brighton's clash with Crystal Palace was also called off.

So they came together to play a friendly game without any spectators.

Chelsea were the victors as Carney Chukwuemeka scored both goals in a 2-1 win.
