Chelsea Thrash FC Noah 8-0 in Conference League with First-Half Goal Blitz

Joao Felix, Christopher Nkunku, and Mykhailo Mudryk shine as Chelsea remains unbeaten in UEFA Conference League

Chelsea stormed to an 8-0 victory over Armenian side FC Noah at Stamford Bridge, showcasing the depth of their squad in the UEFA Conference League. A dominant first-half performance saw Chelsea score six goals, effectively sealing the win by halftime. Tosin Adarabioyo opened the scoring, followed by goals from Marc Guiu, Axel Disasi, Joao Felix (who netted twice), and Mykhailo Mudryk. In the second half, Christopher Nkunku added two more to complete the rout.

Head coach Enzo Maresca opted for a rotated squad, giving Chelsea’s younger and fringe players a chance to impress. The decision paid off, as the Blues put on a show, going 4-0 up within the first 21 minutes. The win keeps Chelsea firmly at the top of their group with three wins from three matches and an impressive 16 goals scored.

Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku both continued their scoring form, while Marc Guiu found the net for the first time in Chelsea colors. Mudryk, who has struggled to make a consistent impact since his high-profile move from Shakhtar Donetsk in early 2023, also contributed with a confident performance, including a stunning goal into the top corner.

Chelsea’s deep squad and lighter Conference League fixtures have allowed players on the fringes to get valuable game time without the toll faced by top Premier League sides like Manchester City and Arsenal. This depth is proving beneficial as Chelsea now turn their attention back to the Premier League with upcoming games against Arsenal and Leicester City before resuming their European campaign on November 28 against Heidenheim.

Player of the Match – Mykhailo Mudryk (Chelsea)
The Ukrainian winger was in fine form, finally showing the confidence and skill Chelsea fans have been waiting for since his big-money transfer. Mudryk contributed with five goal involvements across the last three Conference League games and scored a beauty of his own in this match. His recent form suggests he could be in line for more Premier League action in the coming weeks.
