Chelsea delivered a commanding performance at Stamford Bridge, thrashing Ajax 5-1 in a thrilling Champions League encounter that featured a wild first half with three penalties and five goals. The victory marks Chelsea's second win in the group stage, showcasing the team's attacking depth and youthful talent.

The match began dramatically as Ajax's Kenneth Taylor was shown a straight red card in the 17th minute for a reckless challenge on Facundo Buonanotte, leaving the Dutch side with ten men. Chelsea quickly took advantage of the situation, with Marc Guiu scoring the opener just seconds after the red card. He tapped in from close range following a cross from Wesley Fofana.

Chelsea doubled their lead in the 27th minute with a deflected strike from Moises Caicedo, who scored his fourth goal of the season. However, Ajax found a lifeline when Wout Weghorst converted a penalty after being fouled by Tosin Adarabioyo, pulling the score to 2-1.

The game continued to swing Chelsea's way as Weghorst's penalty concession led to another penalty for Chelsea just before halftime. Enzo Fernandez was fouled in the box, and he handed the ball to Estevao, who netted his first Champions League goal, restoring the two-goal cushion.

The second half saw Chelsea maintain their dominance, and substitute Tyrique George scored just minutes after coming on, extending the lead to 5-1. Chelsea's young talents shone brightly, with Guiu, Estevao, and George all finding the net, making history as the first team in Champions League history to have three different teenagers score in a single match.

Manager Enzo Maresca's decision to rotate the squad paid off, as Chelsea's youthful lineup not only secured a comprehensive victory but also built momentum ahead of their busy schedule. With four consecutive wins now under their belt, Chelsea looks poised to continue their good form as they shift their focus back to Premier League action with a home match against Sunderland on the horizon.

This emphatic win reinforces Chelsea's potential in the Champions League this season, signaling that they are a force to be reckoned with as they aim for European glory.
