Burnley –
Chelsea beat Burnley 3-0 in week seven of the 2020/2021 Premier League. Hakim Ziyech shone in that match, contributing a goal and an assist.
Playing at the Turf Moor Stadium on Saturday (10/31/2020), Chelsea again played against Ziyech from the start. The Moroccan winger was next to Tammy Abraham and Timo Werner on the front row.
Not in vain, because Ziyech could lead Chelsea 1-0 in the first half. The Moroccan player continued his good form in the second half.
After Kurt Zouma increased the lead, Ziyech shone again to score the third goal. Werner’s bait can be turned into a goal.
The 3-0 victory saw Chelsea rise to fourth place in the Premier League standings with 12 points from 7 matches. Meanwhile, Burnley is still the caretaker with just one point.

Chelsea was nervous in the first minutes. Just five minutes into the game, Chelsea’s goal nearly collapsed, if only Ashley Barnes could hit the ball, in a one-on-one situation with goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.
Slowly, Chelsea began to calm down. In the 10th minute, Kai Havertz throws a kick on goal, but Nick Pope can suppress the ball. Six minutes later, it was Abraham’s early turn.
In the 26th minute, Chelsea finally managed to stand out. With Abraham’s cooperation, Ziyech was able to break into Burnley’s goal. The visitors lead 1-0.
In the remaining time of the first half, no additional goals were created. The 1-0 scoreline for Chelsea’s lead persisted.
In the second half, Chelsea put a lot of pressure on Burnley again. Mason Mount was recorded twice as dangerous to the opponent’s goal, with his shots in the 50th and 52nd minutes. Both opportunities resulted in no goals.
While the host can also press occasionally. James Tarkowski had fired a kick from outside the penalty area in the 57th minute, but the ball went wide.
In the 63rd minute, Chelsea was able to double the lead. Kurt Zouma can bleed Mount’s ball. The score becomes 2-0.
Chelsea are becoming more and more comfortable controlling the game. Until finally, seven minutes later, Werner was able to increase Chelsea’s lead. Receiving Ziyech’s pass in the penalty area, Werner’s kick easily sent the ball into Burnley’s goal. The score becomes 3-0.
In the remaining time of the game, there was no significant threat from Burnley to reduce the deficit. Chelsea, meanwhile, could have several more set pieces, including a header from Thiago Silva, but failed to produce a goal. Until the match was dissolved, the score remained 3-0.
