The “Wolves” opened the scoring thanks to Gabonese Mario Lemina, who scored with a header from a corner kick taken by Spaniard Pablo Sarabia, in the 51st minute.
Matt Doherty, in the area, signed Wolverhampton's second already at 90+3. Frenchman Christopher Nkunku, who had entered the game in the 58th minute, pulled one back for Chelsea at 90+6, scoring with a header from Raheem Sterling's cross, but there was no time for the Londoners to avoid defeat.
With this eighth defeat of the league season, Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino is left in a delicate situation. His team is tenth in the table with 22 points, 18 points behind the leader Arsenal and 17 from the podium, which is completed by Liverpool (2nd) and Aston Villa (3rd).
For its part, Wolverhampton rises from fourteenth to eleventh place, now equal on points with Chelsea itself and Bournemouth (12th). The three have ten points above the relegation zone, which is marked by Luton (18th).
When it seemed like they couldn't get any worse, this Chelsea always surprises with one more 'mischief'. They don't give a foot on the ball. Not even on a holiday like December 24, on the eve of Christmas Eve, were they able to bring joy to their fans who traveled to the city of Wolverhampton. A new defeat that has made them enter a dynamic never seen before: they are the team with the most defeats in this edition of the Premier League.
