Cesar Azpilicueta has proved yet again why’s he’s invaluable to Chelsea and keeping their team morale up.
Tammy Abraham was refusing to give the ball up for a penalty against Crystal Palace, Timo wanted to take it to get him up and running for Chelsea in the Premier League. Cesar came in quickly defused the situation by taking the ball away from Tammy and handing it to designated taker Jorginho.
Azpilicueta might be much smaller than Tammy but he wasn’t going to let that stop him from putting his foot down.
Watch it here:
Chelsea fans were all praise for the defender after the game:
Azpilicueta acting like a proper captain there. Took the ball off Tammy and gave it to Jorginho who is the designated penalty taker. No messing about from the Chelsea captain, doing the right thing.
You love to see it. 👏 pic.twitter.com/YYsb3MOpPr

I love Azpilicueta taking control there telling Jorginho to take it again, we don’t want another Barkley situation.
That’s my captain 👏🏽

Why’s Tammy upset? He’s not the penalty taker so he shouldn’t be near it. We saw this with Ross last season and it never ends well. Azpilicueta handled it well. Poor from Tammy.
