Chelsea extended their impressive run in the Conference League with a resounding 8-0 win over FC Noah in matchday 3.

The Blues proved their superiority over their opponents when they took a 6-0 lead in the first half thanks to goals from Tosin Adarabioyo, Marc Guiu, Mykhailo Mudryk, Axel Disasi and João Félix (double).
