Matheus Cunha scored his first Premier League hat-trick as Wolves completed the double over Chelsea for the first time in 49 years with a sensational 4-2 victory at Stamford Bridge.
Jose Sa - 7
Was strong when he needed to be. Beaten twice, but no chance with either. Commanded his box well.
Maximilian Kilman - 7
Had an off night against United, but made some big clearances and negated Nkunku very well. A real captain’s performance.
Craig Dawson - 8
Was superb throughout, a quite brilliant display. Threw himself in front of the ball, won some huge tackles – one of his best performances.
Toti Gomes - 7
Caught out for Chelsea’s first as Palmer fired home, but settled down after the equaliser and used the ball well.
Nelson Semedo - 8
Had plenty of joy down the right-hand side and worked well in tandem with Sarabia, putting in very consistent performances.
Mario Lemina - 8
Hasn’t looked his brilliant self since his return to the team, but this was his best performance to date. Broke up play throughout.
Joao Gomes - 8
Back in the team at the expense of Tommy Doyle and took full advantage. Made the first for Cunha and his partnership with Lemina continues to blossom.
Rayan Ait-Nouri - 8
His first start since returning from the AFCON and showed exactly why he’s ahead of Doherty and Hugo Bueno. Kept Palmer quiet after his goal.
Pablo Sarabia - 7
Back in the team for Bellegarde and looked threatening throughout the game. Kept the ball well, but will be a little disappointed with a couple of free-kicks.
Matheus Cunha - 10
One of the great performances from a Wolves striker in recent memory and the first hat-trick since Diogo Jota in 2019. Bullied Chelsea all afternoon and was faultless.
Pedro Neto - 9
Despite scoring in his last two, Neto hasn’t quite hit the heights since his injury... until today. He tore Chelsea apart and produced two lovely assists. Could have grabbed a couple of goals as well.
