Noni Madueke couldn't contain his excitement as he leapt into the air, cheering loudly as Nicolas Jackson scored a goal for Chelsea against Wolves. It was a thrilling game at Molineux on Sunday, but for Madueke, it was a bittersweet experience.
The Chelsea star was met with a hostile reception from the Wolves fans, who were clearly not happy with him. This was due to a social media storm that had erupted before the game, when Madueke accidentally posted a derogatory comment about Wolverhampton on his private Instagram account. In the post, he had declared that everything about Wolverhampton was "s***", before quickly clarifying that it was a mistake and he had not meant for it to be made public.
Despite his explanation, the Molineux faithful were not impressed and made their feelings known by jeering every time Madueke touched the ball. It was a tough situation for the 22-year-old, who almost made matters worse in the opening minute when he took a powerful shot that was well saved by Wolves' goalkeeper, Joe Sa.
But things turned around for Chelsea when Cole Palmer's corner found Nicolas Jackson at the far post, and the Senegal striker made a perfect header to give the visitors the lead. It was a moment of relief for Madueke, who could finally enjoy the game without the constant heckling.
The match was an important one for Chelsea, who were looking to bounce back from their disappointing defeat against Manchester City in their previous game. It was also Enzo Maresca's first competitive game in charge, and the Italian was determined to make a good impression.
Unfortunately, he was forced to make a change to his starting line-up as Romeo Lavia had suffered a minor hamstring injury. But despite this setback, Chelsea were able to secure the win and continue their pursuit for the Premier League title.
