While the match's result was decided by goals from Joao Pedro and Enzo Fernandez, it was the 18-year-old Brazilian who stole the show with an impressive attacking display that put immense pressure on the Fulham defence, which included Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey.

The match was a frustrating one for Fulham, whose defender Calvin Bassey endured a difficult evening as part of a defence that struggled to contain Chelsea's dynamic attack.

The visitors also saw a first-half goal from Josh King controversially disallowed by VAR for a foul in the buildup, a decision that left Fulham manager Marco Silva visibly furious.

Chelsea eventually found the breakthrough just before halftime when Joao Pedro headed home. The victory was sealed in the second half by an Enzo Fernández penalty, which was awarded after another lengthy VAR review for a handball.

The win gives Chelsea a solid start to their Premier League campaign, while Fulham will be left to rue their missed opportunities and the decisions that went against them.
