Chelsea took full advantage of Ola Aina‘s unavailability to deliver a dominant 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest.
Nigerian forward Taiwo Awoniyi faced a tough challenge in his opening Premier League match of the campaign, as Chelsea asserted their superiority with a comprehensive victory.
The Blues’ offensive prowess was on full display thanks to goals from Josh Acheampong, Pedro Neto, and Reece James, each contributing to the commanding scoreline. Despite the triumph, Chelsea’s momentum was briefly hindered when Malo Gusto was shown a red card midway through the second half, leaving the team to finish the match with ten players.
