Chelsea beats Fulham in Alonsol's debut

Chelsea, under the management of the new coach Chabi Alonso, won 3-2 against Fulham at the start of the 2026-2027 Premier League season, during the first matchweek. João Pedro scored the fastest goal in the history of the opening round of the Premier League after just 31 seconds, setting a record for the quickest goal ever in first-match fixtures, although it did not break the overall record for fastest goal across all club matches. Chelsea scored two goals in the first half, with Palmer adding the third in the second half, before Fulham reduced the deficit by two goals, though a comeback was not achieved. This marks a successful beginning for Alonso with the team, while Alvaro Arbeloa’s experience with Fulham started with a loss. Arbeloa, a friend and former teammate of Alonso, faced him for the first time as a coach in this match.
