Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior blamed a missed handball call for his team's collapse against Leeds United at Stamford Bridge. The Blues led 2-0 through João Pedro's first-half strike and a Cole Palmer penalty, but conceded twice in five minutes to settle for a draw.

Rosenior was particularly frustrated with Leeds' equalizer, claiming Jayden Bogle handled the ball in the build-up to Noah Okafor's goal. "The lad handballs it, it affects my players in that moment," Rosenior said. Chelsea failed to register a shot on target until their second-half penalty, while Leeds barely threatened until their late surge.

The result leaves Chelsea searching for consistency under their new manager. Despite dominating for most of the match, the Blues have now dropped points after surrendering a two-goal advantage. Rosenior acknowledged the need for greater concentration, noting his team showed "unbelievable potential" for 90% of the game but must learn to maintain focus for the full 90 minutes.
