Chelsea are off to a fast start at the London stadium!
Nicolas Jackson has grabbed his second goal after just 18 minutes. The striker was once again played in behind, this time more centrally, and once again found a nice finish to punish the Hammers.
This time it came from some nice one touch play in midfield to draw the home team out, before Moises Caicedo slipped the ball through for Jackson, who had timed his run perfectly and had the keeper one on one and struggling. It was a clever and unorthodox finish from the forward, who we had just predicted might be fired up and ready to bad a few today.
We’re slicing through a rather pathetic Hammers team with ease here.
