Jackson Shines As Chelsea Beats London Rival West Ham

Published

on

Nicolas Jackson scored two goals, leading Chelsea to a 3-0 win against London rivals West Ham United on Saturday.

This victory marks Chelsea’s second consecutive away win and indicates that new coach Enzo Maresca is successfully unifying his large squad

Jackson capitalized on poor defending to find the net in the fourth minute when he sped down the wing, cut inside unchallenged, and drilled a shot under Alphonse Areola.

Fourteen minutes later, the Senegal striker created space between West Ham’s defenders to receive a pass from Moises Caicedo, extending Chelsea’s lead.

West Ham was 3-0 down a little more than a minute into the second half when Jackson teed up Cole Palmer on the break, and the England striker fired home from the edge of the box.
