Enzo Maresca secured his first Premier League win as Chelsea’s head coach in emphatic fashion, with the Blues dismantling Wolves 6-2 at Molineux. Noni Madueke netted a sensational hat-trick and Cole Palmer delivered a masterclass with one goal and three assists.
The match began with Chelsea on the front foot, looking to assert dominance early. Nicolas Jackson opened the scoring, setting the tone for what would be a thrilling encounter. However, Wolves, showing resilience, responded quickly to level the match. Despite this, the equalizer did little to deter Chelsea, who continued to press.
Cole Palmer was the standout performer, dictating the tempo of Chelsea’s attack with impressive creativity. His interplay with Madueke caused havoc for Wolves’ defense throughout the game. Palmer’s efforts paid off, as he not only found the back of the net but also provided three key assists. His link-up play with Madueke was particularly lethal, with the young winger grabbing a well-deserved hat-trick.
João Félix, on his second debut for the club, also got on the score sheet, marking his return to Stamford Bridge with a crucial contribution. Despite Wolves equalizing twice in the first half, the second half belonged entirely to Chelsea, who took control of the game and never looked back.
For Wolves, this result will sting, particularly after showing promise in the first half. Despite their efforts, they were ultimately overrun by a resurgent Chelsea side determined to secure three points.
