The first half was difficult for the Blues. Despite taking the lead in the second minute with a header from Nico Jackson, the London side lost control of the match. Wolves pressed and found the equaliser through Matheus Cunha in the 30th minute.
Chelsea took the lead again through Cole Palmer, but once again their defensive weaknesses allowed Strand Larsen to equalise just before the break.
In the second half, Chelsea came out with a different face. He took advantage of Wolverhampton’s defensive errors and was lethal in his finishing. Noni Madueke was in charge of marking three goals in just 14 minutes (49′, 57′ and 63′), constantly overflowing down the right flank and taking advantage of the huge spaces left by the rival defence. His performance was key to ending a match that, up to that point, had been very disputed.
