Chelsea produced a scintillating attacking display to thrash Wolverhampton Wanderers 6-2 at Molineux Stadium, with Noni Madueke netting a hat-trick inside 14 minutes.

The Blues’ blistering start saw them score 98 seconds into the first half, but an electrifying display from both teams charged the atmosphere at Molineux.

Nicolas Jackson’s early goal was cancelled by Matheus Cunha in the 27th minute, two goals in six minutes.

Cole Palmer and Larsen shared the spoils going into the halftime break.

Three goals in the opening minutes of the second half broke Gary O’Neil’s team resilience, with Chelsea slicing open the Wolves defence with every attack, sealing a dominant display from Maresca’s Chelsea.

The win marks Maresca’s first victory in the Premier League as Chelsea manager, and he becomes the first manager in Premier League history to see his team score six goals in his first away game in the competition.
