Sterling double leads Chelsea to first EPL win of the season
BY Jonathan Ledger
Raheem Sterling scored twice to lead Chelsea to a resounding 3-0 win over Luton Town in their English Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge on Friday.
The England international scored one in each half to give the Blues a comfortable lead before he set up Nicolas Jackson for the third goal.
For his first goal, Sterling dribbled past three defenders before slotting home, while his second was a simple tap-in from a low cross.
Moises Caicedo, the London club’s record signing, made his first start for the club. Although he had a shaky start, he finished the match strong, contributing to the second goal of the night.
The win is Chelsea’s first of the season after three matches; also representing manager Mauricio Pochettino’s maiden win in a competitive match since taking over at the club in the summer.
Chelsea have four points from three matches while Luton Town are winless.
The Blues host AFC Wimbledon in the Carling Cup third round in midweek before returning to EPL action at the same stadium against Nottingham Forest next weekend.
