Chelsea Player Ratings vs Borussia Dortmund: Cucurella, Chilwell, others shine

March 10th, 2023 by Olasunkanmi Ibikunle

Kepa Arrizabalaga – Strong performance in goal from the Spaniard, who ended up with the armband. 7

Wesley Fofana – The kind of performance that reminds you why Chelsea parted with all that money for him in the summer. 7

Kalidou Koulibaly – Looking back to his best in blue after a shaky few months. 7

Marc Cucurella – Worked tirelessly throughout the match and barely put a foot wrong for Graham Potter’s side. 7

Reece James – A constant threat on the right-side and did well to keep Marco Reus quiet on the night. 7.5

Mateo Kovacic – Classy performance from the Croatian, who’s experience in these types of fixtures proves more and more useful. Replaced by Loftus-Cheek, 83 mins. 7

Enzo Fernandez – Another strong showing from the Premier League’s record signing, who will have had Karim Adeyemi’s goal from the first-leg in his mind all night. Replaced by Denis Zakaria, 85 mins. 7.5

Ben Chilwell – He battled for the shirt, caused problems for Dortmund’s left-side and was defensively astute. 8

Raheem Sterling – Did well to open the scoring and was a threat against the Dortmund defence all night. Replaced by Christian Pulisic, 83 mins. 7

Kai Havertz – Showed his composure to tuck away the penalty, after the missing his first attempt but being saved by an encroaching Dortmund defender. 6.5

Joao Felix – Looked lively but ultimately failed to have a massive impact on the match. Replaced by Conor Gallagher, 67 mins. 6.5

Subs: Bettinelli, Bergstrom, Chalobah, Mudryk, Zakaria, Ziyech, Chukwuemeka, Hall.
