Nicolas Jackson, the star striker for Chelsea, made quite the impact in their recent match against West Ham. Not only did he score two goals, but his second goal was accompanied by a unique celebration that caught everyone's attention. Jackson revealed that the celebration was inspired by a dream he had just two days prior to the match.
Chelsea, under the guidance of manager Enzo Maresca, secured a 3-0 away win against West Ham, raising questions about the Hammers' direction with their new boss Julen Lopetegui. Meanwhile, Chelsea's performance has been impressive, with this being their third consecutive away win and temporarily placing them in second position in the table.
The game started off on a rough note for West Ham as Chelsea's first attack led to a goal from Jackson, who managed to slip the ball past the keeper at his near post. Just 15 minutes later, Jackson found the back of the net again, making it his fourth goal of the season and fourth in three appearances against West Ham. His celebration, a nod to the legendary Michael Jackson, left fans in awe.
The idea for this unique celebration came to Jackson during his sleep, as he revealed after the match. He said, "I was dreaming about this so I just did it. I dreamt it two days ago so I just did it." West Ham's performance was lackluster, with the only notable chance coming from Jarrod Bowen, who unfortunately missed the target.
In the second half, Chelsea continued their dominance with Jackson providing an assist to Cole Palmer, who scored their third goal of the match. Maresca's decision to stick with Jackson instead of last week's matchwinner, Christopher Nkunku, proved to be the right one. Former Chelsea star Joe Cole was impressed by Jackson's performance, stating, "I think Enzo Maresca saw they could break past West Ham and Nicolas Jackson is fantastic at that. It's what he does."
Despite his young age, Jackson has been consistently delivering for Chelsea, with his numbers speaking for themselves. Cole even compared him to Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, stating that like Drogba, Jackson will only continue to improve and become more confident on the field. His performance in this match was proof of that, leaving fans and experts excited for what the future holds for this talented player.
Overall, it was a successful and satisfying match for Chelsea, who now have another away win under their belt. Their performance has been impressive and they seem to be on the right track under the guidance of Maresca. As for West Ham, they have some serious questions to address and improvements to make if they want to compete with top teams like Chelsea.
