Chelsea Crush West Ham 5-0, Bolstering European Ambitions
Blues Dominant at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea's relentless form at Stamford Bridge continued on Sunday as they demolished West Ham United 5-0, climbing to seventh in the Premier League standings. The victory solidifies Chelsea's aspirations of securing European football for next season.
Chelsea's dominance was evident from the outset. Mason Mount opened the scoring in the first half, followed by goals from Joao Felix, Hirving Lozano, Hakim Ziyech, and Kai Havertz in the second half. The Blues controlled possession and created numerous chances, leaving the Hammers with little to threaten.
Chelsea's strength at home has been a key factor in their recent resurgence. They have now won five of their last six matches at Stamford Bridge, scoring 17 goals in the process. The victory over West Ham extends their unbeaten run at home to nine matches.
With the win, Chelsea moved up to seventh place in the Premier League, just two points behind fifth-place Tottenham Hotspur. The Blues still have a chance to qualify for the Europa League or the UEFA Europa Conference League, depending on their performance in the remaining matches of the season.
