Premier League: Chelsea Beat Huddersfield 3-0, New Chelsea Boss Maurizio Sarri Speaks

In Huddersfield Vs Chelsea, the new Chelsea coach, Maurizio Sarri  has opened his first Premier League season with a comfortable 3-0 win at Hudderfield.

Italian Sarri, who replaced sacked compatriot Antonio Conte in July, had seen his Blues well beaten by champions Manchester City in the Community Shield at Wembley.

Chelsea, though, soon put that behind them with an impressive away performance to get their league campaign off to an ideal start.

In  Huddersfield Vs Chelsea, the visitors, with world-record £72.1million goalkeeper signing Kepa Arrizabalaga making his debut, went ahead after 34 minutes through a  scuffed effort from France’s World Cup winning midfielder N’golo Kante.

Huddersfield went close to a quick equaliser when Steve Mounie’s header hit the post.

Chelsea were 2-0 up just before half-time when Jorginho, also making his first start after joining from Sarri’s former club Napoli, coolly converted a penalty when Christopher Schindler had brought down Marcos Alonso.

Spaniard Alonso saw an acrobatic effort hit the crossbar during the second half, before Pedro added a third after being set up following a breakaway by Belgium’s Eden Hazard with 14 minutes left.
