Tyrique George opened the scoring early in the second half with his first goal for the club. Substitute Noni Madueke found the net in the 57th and 74th minutes to effectively render the return leg meaningless. Both of Madueke’s goals were assisted by Jadon Sancho. Chelsea’s win could have been even more convincing, but Christopher Nkunku missed a penalty shortly before the third goal of the match.
The visitors slowed down in the final stages of the game, and shortly before the end nearly conceded. Substitute Patryk Kun found himself in an excellent position and fired a shot, but Jørgensen made a superb save—his first real involvement of the match.
