Noni Madueke and Jadon Sancho were the stars in Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Legia Warsaw in the UEFA Europa Conference League quarter-final. Madueke scored twice, and Sancho set up both goals, giving Chelsea a comfortable lead for the second leg.
Madueke and Sancho Lead Chelsea to Win
Chelsea started slowly but improved in Poland thanks to Noni Madueke and Jadon Sancho. Madueke came on as a substitute and changed the game. He scored his first goal after a clever pass from Sancho. Soon after, he scored again from close range after another assist from Sancho. These important plays, along with Tyrique George’s goal, helped Chelsea win and put Legia Warsaw in a tough spot for the next game that will be played next Thursday at Stamford Bridge.
An Impressive Win for Chelsea Under Maresca
Enzo Maresca’s team controlled the match from the start, having over 70% possession, though they struggled to score in the first half. The second-half change, led by Sancho’s creative play and Madueke’s great finishing, showed the difference in the squad’s quality. The match also showed Madueke’s return to form after injury and Sancho’s increasing impact under Maresca. This win pushes Chelsea closer to a Europa Conference League semi-final spot and their quest for European success this season.
What’s Next for Chelsea?
With a 3-0 advantage going into the second leg at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea are in control of the quarter-final. The focus might shift to rotating players and keeping them fit for a busy schedule. For Madueke, this performance could boost his season despite transfer rumors, while Sancho continues to be a key playmaker. Future challenges in both domestic and European competitions will test Maresca’s ability to keep Chelsea’s momentum as they aim to finish the season strong.
