Chelsea 8-0 FC Noah: ‘They shouldn’t be in it’ – Blues cruising in Conference League

2024-11-08 11:05:02

Chelsea did get the Conference League record score but they fell some way short of their own club record in Europe, a 13-0 Cup Winners’ Cup victory over Luxembourg side Jeunesse Hautcharage in 1971.

This 8-0 ranks as their joint second highest win, alongside three other games.

With Chelsea leading 6-0 against Noah at half-time, and the Armenians looking like they could concede every time there was an attack, the only surprise was that they only scored twice more.

Maresca was asked afterwards if he was disappointed not to break their record.

“You have to be serious,” he said. “It is never easy. It is most important we are serious and professional. We needed to show that.”

Noah’s Portuguese boss Rui Mota said: “It’s hard to take, 8-0. We know that Chelsea are on another level as a team, but still, we wanted to do better.

“If we didn’t concede so early in the game or maybe after two minutes when we had a very good chance, if we had scored a goal, things would be different.

“Congratulations to Chelsea, they were very strong.”

Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo, who opened the scoring with his first goal for the club, said: “We’re in the competition to win it.

“Any competition we’re in, we strive for the best and this competition we definitely want to win.”
