Noni Madueke was on fire for Chelsea as they beat Wolves in the match week 2. The Blues won by a 6-2 thrashing at the Molineux. As a result, Enzo Maresca was able to register his first win with the London side. It was a much needed victory for them. Especially, after they failed to win a point against Man City at the Stamford Bridge on match day 1. As of now, they have officially won their first points of the season. It was a very entertaining game with goals on either side of the half. Fans were wanting the Blues to put in a good performance. But, at the same time, it is safe to say that no one was expecting them to win with such a big margin.
The Blues are planning to make a return to the top 4 this season. Securing a big win like that would have surely done Chelsea and Madueke a world of good. But, at the same time, the London side were well below their usual levels in the last campaign. They barely managed a 6th place finish in the Premier League. They looked promising in the EFL Cup. But, Liverpool beat them in the finals. To add insult to injury, Man Utd stole their UEL spot after winning the FA Cup against Man City. Supporters will be keen to see their team bounce back this term.
Madueke hattrick hero for Chelsea: Statements on and off-the-field
The Blues may not have been that great at the back against Wolves. But, they were quite clearly the better side going forward. At the same time, Madueke was under the spotlight for both Chelsea and Wolves. The 22-year-old is an important part of Maresca’s team. At the same time, he had been very good in the pre-season. But, Wolves’ fans were also keeping an eye on him. As per malaymail.com, the winger was the public enemy number 1 at the Molineux. Actually, what happened was that he ended up uploading a story on Instagram in which he badmouthed Wolves. While it may have been a mistake on his part, the home fans were in no mood for mercy. They would boo him every time he got on the ball.
Maresca’s men would have surely enjoyed their outing in match day 2. At the same time, Chelsea fans were more than happy to back Madueke ‘owning’ Wolves on and off-the-field. It will be interesting to see what kind of a role the 22-year-old plays for the Blues this season. As of now, as per en.wikipedia.org, he has 134 club appearances to his name. Meanwhile, he has managed to score 37 times as of now. As per transfermarkt.co.in, he has 16 G/A in 48 appearances for the Blues until now.
Summing up the win
Nicolas Jackson opened the scoring at the Molineux. The Blues took the lead after almost 90 seconds on the board. Matheus Cunha put Wolves on level terms in the 27th minute. Cole Palmer was clinical once again as the London side took the lead once more. But, Strand Larsen would make things levelled once more in the dying stages of the first 45. The first half ended 2-2. Then, it was all the Noni Madueke show for Chelsea. The 22-year-old would go on to bag a hattrick.
Palmer would assist Madueke in all of his 3 Chelsea goals against Wolves. The 22-year-old winger was the star of the show. The game looked well beyond the reach of the home side. But, to make things even special, Joao Felix came on from the bench to score on his debut. Felix is making a return to the Blues from Atletico Madrid. The final score was 6-2. We, at footballexpress.in, believe that Enzo Maresca can lead his side to big things if they continue playing as such. They do need some improvement at the back. But, they look quite capable of finishing in the top 4 and perhaps going all the way in the UECL too.
