Chelsea Fans Stunned After Romelu Lukaku Misses Sitter Against Crystal Palace, It Sums Up His Season

After a goalless first half, Ruben Loftus-Cheek gave Chelsea the lead midway through the second period before Mount made it 2-0 with 15 minutes remaining.

Lukaku was brought on after the second goal and would waste a glorious opportunity to put the icing on the cake for Chelsea.

Werner burst into the Palace area in the final minute of normal time and squared the ball for Lukaku.

But the Belgian striker could only direct his shot onto the post from six yards out.

His fellow substitute Hakim Ziyech latched onto the rebound but his shot was then blocked on the line.

Chelsea fans were left scratching their heads as to how Lukaku had failed to score.

“That was just a tap in, Lukaku. I know players miss some chances but this is literally an open net,” wrote one fan on Twitter.

“Still in disbelief as to how Lukaku missed that chance,” wrote another.
