18-year-old Marc Guiu stole the show with a dazzling hat-trick as Chelsea stormed into the UEFA Conference League knockout stages! 🎉
In a thrilling match at Stamford Bridge, the Spanish teenager became Chelsea’s youngest-ever hat-trick scorer, dismantling Shamrock Rovers 5-1. Guiu opened the scoring with a bullet header in the 22nd minute, but the Irish side briefly equalized through Markus Poom. The Blues quickly regained control, with Guiu capitalizing on a defensive error and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall adding a third before halftime.
Guiu wasn’t done yet—he completed his historic trio of goals just before halftime with *another* header! 🚀 Marc Cucurella sealed the victory in the second half, leaving Chelsea unbeaten in the group stage with a jaw-dropping 26 goals scored.
🔥 \"It’s a dream come true,\" said Guiu post-match. \"The team’s energy is unstoppable right now.\"
What’s Next?
Chelsea now face Everton in the Premier League on December 22nd. With Guiu leading the Conference League scoring charts (6 goals! 👑), could this be the start of a new era for the Blues? Stay tuned! ⚽
