Chelsea - Ajax 5:1

Chelsea delivered a ruthless performance at Stamford Bridge, hammering Ajax 5–1 in a historic UEFA Champions League night that saw three different teenage goalscorers find the net — a first in the competition’s long and storied history.

The opening goal came in the 19th minute courtesy of 19-year-old forward Marc Guiu, who pounced inside the box to give the Blues an early lead. Things went from bad to worse for the Dutch giants when Ajax captain Kenneth Taylor was sent off shortly after, leaving his side with ten men for over an hour.

Enzo Fernández coolly converted a penalty to double the lead before 18-year-old sensation Estevão Willian made it 3–0 — also from the spot — marking his first European goal for the club. Midfielder Moisés Caicedo then unleashed a thunderous strike from distance to pile on the misery for the visitors.

After the break, 18-year-old winger Tyrique George added the fifth with a composed finish, sealing the landmark win and etching his name into the Champions League record books alongside Guiu and Estevão.
