Leiga Warsaw 0-3 Chelsea: Tyrique George nets first senior goal before Noni Madueke brace as Blues take firm control of Europa Conference League quarter-final

When shooting towards a snarling wall of Legia Warsaw ultras, it helps having a fearless 19-year-old live wire from the academy willing to show the strength of his character.

With his first senior goal for Chelsea, Tyrique George scored, sprinted to the corner, slid on his knees and sent his club towards the Conference League’s semi-finals.

That 49th-minute opener and ballsy celebration was needed as Enzo Maresca’s side had struggled to break down the low block of Legia before then.

It created new spaces for the visitors to use, as a half-time substitute in Noni Madueke added two goals which effectively ended this tie, both set up by Jadon Sancho.
