EDITORS COMMENTS
In an unprecedented footballing season, Chelsea's Ben Chilwell etched his name into the annals of Stamford Bridge history with an emphatic first goal for the club against Crystal Palace on October 3,2020. The English international's strike, which came in the 45th minute, marked the opening goal in a 2-0 victory for the Blues in a deserted Stamford Bridge. As the Premier League continued to grapple with the challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic, government social distancing laws kept fans away from stadiums, resulting in a surreal atmosphere as the game kicked off. The usually bustling stands were eerily empty, with the only sounds emanating from the players and the ball as it soared through the air. Chilwell, who had only joined Chelsea from Leicester City earlier in the summer transfer window, showed no signs of nerves as he stepped up to take a free-kick from just outside the Crystal Palace box. With a cool and calculated finish, the left-back curled the ball past the helpless Vicente Guaita to put Chelsea ahead. His teammates and coaching staff erupted in jubilation, with Chilwell's newfound heroics providing a much-needed boost for the London side. The goal was a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the footballing world in the face of adversity, with Chilwell's moment of brilliance serving as a beacon of hope amidst the uncertainty of the times. The image of Chilwell celebrating with his teammates, against the backdrop of an empty Stamford Bridge, encapsulates the unique challenges and triumphs of the 2020-21 football season.
