EPL: Madueke delighted with first Premier League goal

Chelsea winger Noni Madueke overwhelmed with joy after scoring his first goal for the club in their 3-1 loss to Arsenal in a Premier League game at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night.

Madueke got his goal in the 65th minute when he received a pass from Mateo Kovacic, having made a run behind the Arsenal defence before putting the ball in the bottom corner.
​
Maduke joined Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven in the winter transfer window and has had a rough start to his career at the London-based club.
​
The Super Eagles-eligible player failed to get adequate game time under Chelsea’s former manager Graham Potter, starting only two Premier League games and coming on as a substitute on three occasions.

When Blues interim manager Frank Lampard arrived, Maduke failed to make the match-day squad in his first two games before playing his first game under the Chelsea legend in a 2-0 defeat to Brentford.
​
​
The England-U21 star got his first start under Lampard in last night’s match against Arsenal and was on the pitch for 79 minutes.
​
​While reacting to his first goal for Chelsea, the 21-year-old wrote on his social media handle

“Immensely proud every time I look down at the crest on my chest. We appreciate the support from you guys even in the most frustrating of times. We will rise with Godspeed”.
