Estêvão steals the show and makes history in Chelsea’s Premier League win | OneFootball

Selhurst Park was the stage for a true Estêvão masterclass. In Chelsea's 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace, the Brazilian not only led the offensive actions but also etched his name into the record books of England.

With a mature and decisive performance, the 18-year-old and 276-day-old forward was the driving force for the Blues away from home, being directly responsible for two of the three goals (one goal and one assist).

With this, according to Opta, Estêvão became the second youngest player in Chelsea’s entire history to achieve such a feat in the Premier League.

To give an idea of the significance of this achievement, the Brazilian broke a 33-year-old record of precociousness at the club.

He is the youngest player to reach these numbers since Neil Shipperley, in 1993.

Estêvão now joins a select list of prodigies who managed to dominate a Premier League match before even turning 19 years old.
