Chelsea 2-0 Servette: Madueke’s Late Strike Puts Blues in Strong Position

Chelsea vs Servette: Chelsea secured a solid 2-0 lead over Servette in their Europa Conference League qualifying match, taking a significant advantage into the second leg.

Christopher Nkunku and Noni Madueke scored in the second half to give Chelsea a commanding position. This result marked a positive turn for Chelsea after their recent Premier League loss to Manchester City, delivering Enzo Maresca’s first win in charge at Stamford Bridge.

The match began with Chelsea struggling to find their rhythm, and Gael Ondoua threatened early on with a shot from a tight angle that Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen managed to save. However, Chelsea improved their performance after the break. Nkunku capitalized on a chance when he was fouled by Jeremy Frick, converting the resulting penalty with confidence.

Moments later, Marc Guiu had an opportunity to increase the lead but was denied twice by Frick, who made a crucial recovery after Guiu had stolen the ball outside the box.Madueke sealed the win with a goal 14 minutes from the end, collecting a throughball from Enzo Fernandez and finishing with a powerful shot that beat Frick and found the top corner.

Jeremy Guillermenot missed a chance to reduce the deficit in stoppage time, sending a volley over the bar from close range, and Jorgensen made another key save to preserve the clean sheet.
