Champions League: Chelsea Youngsters Humiliate Ten-Man Ajax
Chelsea’s promising youngsters produced a sensational performance in the Champions League, thrashing ten-man Ajax to secure back-to-back European victories.
The Blues, who had opened their campaign with a disappointing defeat away to Bayern Munich, bounced back in style with a dominant display that showcased the depth and talent in their youthful squad.
Ajax’s night went from bad to worse when they were reduced to ten men midway through the second half, allowing Chelsea to take full control of the contest. The London side capitalized brilliantly, with their teenagers combining flair and confidence to dismantle the Dutch champions in front of an electrified crowd at Stamford Bridge.
The result marks Chelsea’s second straight win in Europe, keeping their qualification hopes alive and restoring belief among fans after a shaky start to the campaign.
Meanwhile, Mauricio Pochettino’s men will next travel to Azerbaijan to face Qarabag, aiming to extend their winning run and strengthen their position in the group standings.
