Noni Madueke’s hat-trick led Chelsea to their first Premier League win of the season in a thrilling 6-2 victory over Wolves.
Chelsea took an early lead just 98 seconds in when Nicolas Jackson headed in a corner from Cole Palmer after Matheus Cunha’s flick-on. Jackson’s celebration fueled the atmosphere at Molineux, prompting Wolves to fight back.
Rayan Ait-Nouri’s impressive run set up Cunha for an equaliser with a neat finish, and Palmer restored Chelsea’s lead with a superb lob from 30 yards. Wolves levelled again just before halftime when Jorgen Strand Larsen scored from close range after a free-kick.
Madueke then took control in the second half, netting three goals in 14 minutes with precise low shots from inside the area, all assisted by Palmer.
Joao Felix capped off the win with a late goal, firing high into the net after being set up by Pedro Neto.
