Tosin Adarabioyo and Tyrique George shared their excitement following Chelsea’s historic 8-0 victory over Noah in the UEFA Europa Conference League at Stamford Bridge on Thursday. This dominant win marked the largest-ever scoreline in the competition’s history.
Adarabioyo, who opened the scoring in the 12th minute, headed home Enzo Fernández’s corner for his first goal in Chelsea colours. The 27-year-old, who joined from Fulham in the summer after his contract expired, expressed his joy after the match. “Amazing, a goal, huge win and a clean sheet. I’ve been trying to score for a while, so to get my first goal for Chelsea means a lot,” he told Chelsea’s YouTube channel.
It was also a special moment for 18-year-old Tyrique George, who made his first-ever start for Chelsea. George, who debuted as a substitute against Servette, described his excitement at being named in the starting lineup just hours before kick-off. “It was great to start for Chelsea, my boyhood club. I was a little nervous, but the excitement took over,” George shared. “I couldn’t wait to make a good impression on the fans and manager.”
Both players will look to build on their performances as Chelsea continues its campaign in the Europa Conference League.
