With 21 minutes on the clock, Chelsea are already 4-0 up against FC Noah, with two of them the first goals for the club for their respective scorers.
Tosin Adarabioyo got the first – a stooping header from the near post which he guided in. A nice set piece – but the last thing you want to concede if you’re a minnow trying to dig in against a giant.

Guiu grabs Chelsea second – and his first
The second was almost as easy. The away side were just trying to steady themselves after conceding that opener, but their attempts to hold the ball at the back backfired.
Their two central defenders miscommunicated and a pass between them was nicked by the ever-keen Marc Guiu. The forward was instantly in on goal, and he slotted it in.
Let’s not forget, he had a horror miss against Servette in our qualifying game in this competition from a much easier scoring position, so it wasn’t a clear cut scoring chance. But he buried it really nicely and will feel much better now.
It’s another debut Chelsea goal… this time for Marc Guiu! 🔵
Noah defender Goncalo Silva won’t want to watch that back 😳

Beefy defender nods in
Axel Disasi scored the third – another beefy header from a corner against defenders who really just can’t handle the size and physicality of some of their opposition numbers.

Felix caps the run with Chelsea’s 4th
It was more good work from Guiu which won the ball which fell to Joao Felix to clip in for a fourth. He had missed a big chance early on – so he will be happy to get this one.
