Raheem Sterling scored his first goal for Chelsea!!

July 29, 2022

Raheem Sterling scored his first goal for Chelsea on Friday night as Thomas Tuchel’s team defeated Udinese to cap up the preseason.

N’Golo Kante was lauded by Tuchel as Chelsea‘s Mohamed Salah last season,

and it’s simple to understand why after seeing goals like the one in northeastern Italy.

Driving through the defence,

the midfielder made the decision to shoot himself rather than liberate Marcos Alonso,

who is frequently Chelsea’s most inventive player despite wishing to join Barcelona. His shot went past Marco Silvestri and into the bottom right corner.

Tuchel’s high praise from a few months earlier had even more significance as it was revealed that Mason Mount,

Raheem Sterling, and Kai Havertz had all missed opportunities before and after Kante’s goal.

Jorginho, Kante’s partner in midfield,

was also heavily engaged in the first 45 minutes and set up Sterling, who initially knocked Silvestri to the ground before blasting directly at him. To the major summer signing’s advantage, the ball came back off him and looped over the goalkeeper.

After Roberto Perrerya, who was a problem all night,

caught the defence off guard, Gerard Deulofeu, who had been struggling all night, restored parity for the home team.

Even though they came after some positive build-up play and strong pressure between the three, Sterling,

Havertz, and Mount squandered yet more chances in the second half.
Up until Callum Hudson-arrival,

Odoi’s Chelsea’s right wing-back position lacked significantly more dynamism.

The winger dropped his shoulder in the last seconds of play,

took on his defender, and crossed for Mount to tap in a third.

Not the world’s most clinical effort, but some order was restored following the defeat to Arsenal in Orlando.

OFF THE MARK Chelsea defeats Udinese 3–1 thanks to goals from Raheem Sterling and N’Golo Kante in a spirited victory.

In Chelsea’s 3-1 victory over Udinese in the preseason, RAHEEM STERLING scored his first goal for the club.

Just before halftime of the Blues’ final preseason game, Sterling, a £50 million acquisition, scored in Italy.

Lately, Mason Mount completed the victory.

Kalidou Koulibaly, a defender who cost Napoli £35 million, also made his debut.

After missing his club’s US tour due to his vaccination status,

After a mistake by goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, former Watford forward Gerard Deulofeu scored a quick goal to get Watford within one.

However, under the leadership of manager Thomas Tuchel, Chelsea ultimately returned to winning.

**After losing 4-0 to Arsenal, Chelsea’s preseason tour of the US came to a disappointing conclusion.**

Additionally, Tuchel charged that his players lacked both mental and physical dedication.

But prior to their Saturday Premier League opening against Everton, the west Londoners returned to winning ways.

With a back three of newcomer Koulibaly, Thiago Silva, and wanted-away captain Cesar Azpilicueta, Chelsea fielded their strongest lineup.

1–3 Udinese Chelsea: Raheem Sterling gets his first goal for his new team as the Blues defeat their opponents from Serie A, providing Thomas Tuchel with some cause for celebration in preseason.

Mason Mount, Raheem Sterling, and N’Golo Kante scored goals to secure the victory.
Kalidou Koulibaly, a recent acquisition, excelled in the centre of the defence.
The Blues are currently anticipating their Premier League debut against Everton.

But first, there are important football-related issues to resolve.

Tuchel has to get his team in condition before they visit Everton the following weekend after being destroyed by Arsenal. With a losing start to the year,

his club may experience a slump similar to the one that developed toward the end of the previous campaign. View the match blog below LIVE for Standard Sport to keep up with all the action!

N’Golo Kante, Raheem Sterling, and Mason Mount scored for Chelsea as they defeated Udinese 2-1 in their final preseason game.

Prior to Sterling scoring his first goal in blue with a lucky finish, Kante gave Chelsea the lead with a goal with his weaker foot from outside the area.

With a goal from former Everton forward Gerard Deulofeu, Udinese halved the deficit before halftime.

Following outstanding work from the substitute Callum Hudson-Odoi, Mason Mount scored from close range in the final seconds of the contest.

Sterling scored his first goal for the Blues in an odd way with 10 minutes left in the first half. Sterling ducked as he approached the goal after receiving a pass from Jorginho and tried to chip the goalie. The original shot was blocked by the Italian, but Chelsea’s new addition made it 2-0.

Deulofeu of Udinese scored a comeback goal in the 42nd minute. Edouard Mendy successfully blocked Roberto Pereyra’s opening shot, but was unfortunate not to be able to stop Deulofeu’s second attempt.
