Lucas Paquetá scored a stunning goal against Chelsea (ENG) this Friday (20th), in the second round of the Premier League. However, the former Flamengo player’s goal didn’t help much, as Estêvão’s team thrashed them 5-1.
Incredibly, West Ham (ENG) took the lead against Chelsea. Six minutes into the first half, Lucas Paquetá received the ball near the box and fired it into the top corner past goalkeeper Sánchez, securing the English team’s only goal.
Chelsea, however, wasn’t shaken by Lucas Paquetá’s brilliant goal and went on the attack against West Ham. Still in the first half, the current world champions turned it around to 3-1, with goals from João Pedro, Pedro Neto, and Enzo Fernández.
In the second half, Chelsea extended the score to 5-1. The fourth goal came after a mistake by West Ham’s goalkeeper when playing out from the back. Soon after, from a corner kick, Chalobah found the net and sealed the overwhelming victory over Lucas Paquetá’s team.
With Lucas Paquetá available, West Ham faces Wolverhampton (ENG) next Tuesday (26th), in the FA Cup. The match is scheduled for 3:30 pm (Brasília time), with streaming on Disney+.
