Chelsea’s most recent match was an amazing display of skills and team spirit, leading to an outstanding 5-0 win over West Ham. This win was vital for their chances to feature in European tournament in the upcoming season.
The game began with a lot of energy, and Chelsea took the control fast. Cole Palmer, a young star at just 22 years of age, proved his worth again by scoring the first goal. He was at the right spot at the right time, catching a goal scoring opportunity when a cross from his teammate, Noni Madueke, came to his way.
With a quick and swift move, he sent the ball totally flying past West Ham’s goalie, Alphonse Areola, into the net. This wasn’t just any normal goal, it was Palmer’s 21st in the league, an amazing achievement in his first season with The Blues.
As the game progressed, Chelsea’s captain, Conor Gallagher, showed his job as leader on the field. 30 minutes into the game, he saw a loose ball in West Ham’s penalty area. Right away and he took his chance, showing the loopholes in West Ham’s defense and making it two for Chelsea.

Noni Madueke, who had already helped with an assist, decided it was his time to shine. Before the end of the first half, he scored from a corner kick, making it 3-0.
As the second half started, Chelsea kept up their strong play. Madueke, showing his value again, helped Nicolas Jackson score the team’s fourth goal. Jackson, wanting more, got another goal later. He kept in line to grab a long pass from Moises Caicedo and nailed his second goal, which a VAR check confirmed.
This great win pushed Chelsea up to seventh in the Premier League rankings, even ahead of Manchester United. With United playing on Monday, Chelsea’s spot could shift, but this victory puts them in a solid spot for a Europa League spot next season.
