Baba Rahman drops to bench after Premier League debut

Chelsea defender Abdul Baba Rahman was dropped to the bench on Tuesday night when the Stamford Bridge outfit travelled to play Dynamo Kyiv in the UEFA Champions League.

Baba Rahman made his Premier League debut on Saturday in the game against Jordan Ayew’s Aston Villa replacing the injured Branislav Ivanovic with Cesar Azpilicueta shifting to right back.

On Tuesda, Jose Mourinho stuck with Cesar Azpilicueta at left full back bringing in Kurt Zouma for the right full back position with Gary Cahill and John Terry at the centre of defence.

Former Kotoko and Augsburg player Baba Rahman had no place in the Chelsea defence and had to watch the game from the bench without making an appearance.

Chelsea could not find the back of the net away from home in the UEFA Champions League game as did home team Dynamo Kyiv, ending the game in a goalless draw.

Chelsea are now third on their UEFA Champions League Group G table with four points from two game.

Abdul Baba Rahman made his club debut for Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League game against Maccabi Tel Aviv after transferring from German club Augsburg in the summer.
