Chrome masking new tab with last content visited

Reported by befw...@gmail.com, Nov 21

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Chrome opening a new link on existing tab but showing the last URL visited instead of the correct destination. 
To replicate the issue 
Click a link that is intended to open new tab {link that does not have target = "_blank"} -> then on the new tab you opened go to another page (URL eg google.com) then go back to the original tab and click the same link 

Chrome redirect you to the existing tab that you used before but shows you the last page URL you visited in this case google.com

What is the expected behavior?
Open the target URL on a new tab not the last URL visited 

What went wrong?
Chrome new tab does not open link on new tab 

Did this work before? Yes
