After VAR disallowed the goal celebration by Chelsea fans for offside, KAI HAVERTZ got a swift lesson in quick karma.
On Sunday, at Stamford Bridge, the German played a significant role in Arsenal’s 1-1 tie with the Blues.
The second half’s scoring was initiated by Gabriel Martinelli’s precise strike from close range.
However, Chelsea were able to salvage a point at home thanks to a long-range blaster by Pedro Neto.
However, if Havertz’s earlier goal for Arsenal had stood, the outcome could have been different.

Even though he had only been in the north of the capital for sixteen months, the Stamford Bridge faithful still routinely booed the former Blues star.
Even though Havertz scored the winning goal that gave Chelsea their second Champions League title in 2021, it seemed like the sentiment was reciprocated.
After getting in behind Arsenal’s defense in the first half, the German slotted the ball past Robert Sanchez to put his team ahead.
Havertz couldn’t contain his joy and started celebrating immediately, even going so far as to push Chelsea fans while he eagerly provoked them.

Seeing a former son return to haunt them in such a horrible manner scared the Bridge into stillness.
When it was stated that VAR was looking into a possible offside, Havertz’s grin disappeared immediately.
As Havertz shifted to receive the ball, the referees at Stockley Park carefully examined his physique.
Subsequently, the lines were raised to indicate that he was marginally offside.
When the large screen ruled out Havertz’s goal, the Chelsea fans applauded wildly.
As soon as karma took its course, the forward’s head drooped.
And there was a range of reactions from backers on social media.
A person said, “It’s his shame.”
Someone else said, “This is so painful.”
One noted: “He will score again.”
Another added: “Was he meant to not celebrate?”
