Chelsea’s 6-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers today August 25, 2024, was a match filled with drama, skill, and a clear message from Nicolas Jackson.
The striker, who opened the scoring for Chelsea, didn’t just make headlines with his goal but also with his pointed words directed at former teammate John Obi Mikel.
“Shut your mouth, don’t talk sh*t, we are killing ourselves for Africa,” Jackson stated after the match, sending a strong message to critics who doubted Chelsea’s commitment.
Jackson’s early goal set the tone for what would become a dominant performance by the Blues. However, it was Noni Madueke who stole the show with a stunning hat-trick, each goal masterfully assisted by Cole Palmer.
The match wasn’t without resistance from Wolves, who managed to equalize twice, with goals from Matheus Cunha and Jorgen Strand Larsen.
Despite their efforts, Wolves were ultimately outclassed by Chelsea’s relentless attack. Palmer, who not only provided the assists for Madueke’s goals but also scored a brilliant goal himself, was pivotal in Chelsea’s victory.
As Chelsea continues to push forward, Jackson’s words will likely echo as a rallying cry for the team, emphasizing their dedication to their club and a greater cause.
