Chelsea fans are dissatisfied with Christian Pulisic's performance following their 3-2 win over Real Madrid in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final clash.
The win was a bitter pill to swallow for the Premier League giants, who were knocked out on aggregate by a 5-4 loss.
Pulisic entered the game in the 83rd minute but failed to make an impact. Fans of the Blues have taken to social media to criticize the star after he missed a number of scoring chances.
The Stamford Bridge faithful are understandably enraged by Pulisic's missed opportunities and have taken to Twitter to express their displeasure. Here are a few examples of tweets:
Chelsea raced to a 3-0 lead at the Santiago Bernabeu and appeared to be on their way to defeating Real Madrid on their home turf. However, Los Blancos rallied, and despite two goals from youngster Rodrygo and superstar Karim Benzema, the Blues were unable to secure a victory.
Pulisic, on the other hand, will bear some of the blame for the loss because he squandered two crucial chances to end the game. He also appeared to be slow on the night, despite the fact that he had joined the game late in normal time.
When the Blues resume their fight for the FA Cup this weekend, the American will try to pick himself up.
Chelsea have been eliminated from the Champions League as a result of Real Madrid's second-half comeback.
The Blues have long since dropped out of contention for the Premier League title, and they now sit in third place, a position they could potentially hold until the end of the season.
Domestically, Thomas Tuchel's men have excelled in knockout games, reaching the Carabao Cup final and losing on penalties to Liverpool. They also won the FIFA Club World Cup in February and the UEFA Super Cup earlier in the season.
Chelsea is out of the Champions League and the Premier League title appears to be out of reach.
