Kolkata: Brazilian teenager Estevao has set the Champions League ablaze with his mesmerizing performance in Chelsea's 3-0 win over Barcelona. The 18-year-old's goal in the 55th minute sealed his place in an elite club of teens who have scored in their first three Champions League starts, alongside Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe. In a match where Chelsea dominated from start to finish, Estevao was the star of the show. He twisted and turned past defenders, showcasing his incredible agility and skill. His goal, which came on the heels of a Jules Kounde own goal and Liam Delap's strike, was a testament to his potential. Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca had warned that putting too much pressure on young players like Estevao could be detrimental. However, the teenager has proven him wrong, silencing critics with his impressive display. Maresca's strategy to ease Estevao into the team has paid off, with the Brazilian scoring four goals in his first four starts for Chelsea. Estevao's performance has caught the attention of football fans worldwide, with former France and Arsenal star Thierry Henry hailing him as a player to be enjoyed. Henry hopes that Estevao will not be coached out of his natural game, allowing him to continue showcasing his flair and skill. The win marks Chelsea's biggest victory over Barcelona in recent times, with the Club World Cup champions struggling to find their footing. Barcelona's fourth defeat in their last 10 matches in all competitions has raised concerns about their performance this season.
