It’s 5-0 to Chelsea, and following a 3 minute VAR delay, Nicolas Jackson’s second goal has been allowed.
It was another dreadful turnover in midfield from West Ham, and Moises Caicedo found himself in space on the halfway line. He picked out Jackson, who had timed his run to perfection and only had to beat the goalkeeper. He’s messed up a few similar chances this season, but his confidence is high now and he made no mistake.
That’s now his 13th Premier League goal of the season. Add two more in the final 3 games – more than possible given the opposition – and we’re talking about a nice round 15 goal debut season. That’s a lovely return for a player who we all knew was going to be very raw to start with.
Next season we’re really excited to see what we see from him and his teammates.
