The strongest young squad! Chelsea beats Ajax 5-1 with Enzo passing the penalty; three players under 20 score goals

Among the top five leagues, opinions differ on the best team, but Chelsea arguably holds the title for the best young squad. During the third round of the Champions League group stage, Chelsea crushed Ajax 5-1 at home, a one-sided game against the Eredivisie leaders. A special moment was when Enzo gave up his penalty kick, making Chelsea the first team in Champions League history to have three players under 20 score in a single match.

Chelsea led Ajax 5-1, and in the 18th minute, Fofana assisted 19-year-old Chelsea starter forward Gila (Spain) to open the scoring; at 45+6 minutes, Chelsea’s 18-year-old starting right winger (Brazil) earned a penalty. The Blues’ first-choice penalty taker and captain Enzo, who had already scored from the spot in the 45th minute, handed the chance to his young South American teammate Esteban. The 18-year-old Brazilian international calmly converted the penalty to score.At 18 years old, Esteban became the youngest Champions League goal scorer in Chelsea’s historyAt the 48th minute, Santos assisted 19-year-old Chelsea substitute forward George to score.

Both Gila and George are 19, while Esteban is only 18; all three scored in the same Champions League match,making Chelsea the first team in Champions League history to have three players under 20 score in a single game..

Chelsea’s youthful storm was fierce; in the Champions League match against Ajax, 17-year-old Walsh (England) came on as a substitute at halftime. According to statistics,17-year-old Walsh set the record as Chelsea’s youngest player to appear in a Champions League match.
