Enzo Fernández on target as Chelsea thrash West Ham | OneFootball

Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernández, Chelsea captain, scored the third goal in the 33rd minute in his team's 5-1 win over West Ham at the London Stadium on the second matchday of the Premier League.

The Hammers took the lead in the sixth minute thanks to Lucas Paqueta's goal, but the Blues quickly responded with goals from Brazilian Joao Pedro and Portuguese Pedro Neto. At 33 minutes of action, 18-year-old William Estevao, new signing of the English institution, ran down the right wing, reached the end line, and found Fernández free inside the area, who pushed the ball into the back of the net. Finally, Moises Caicedo and Trevoh Chalobah sealed the win.

In this way, the 24-year-old from Buenos Aires, who was expelled against Colombia in the previous South American Qualifiers match and is not part of the Argentine National Team's preliminary list, scored his first goal of the season and his 17th in 117 games with the London team's jersey.

The team led by Italian Enzo Maresca, Club World Cup champions, reached four points and climbed to the top of the English league (the matchday is still to be completed) after their draw against Crystal Palace in the debut. Their next match will be on Saturday, August 30, against Fulham at Stamford Bridge.
