EPL: Chelsea move into second place after a 3-0 win over West Ham

Chelsea smashed West Ham in Saturday's early kickoff to move into second place in the Premier League.

The Blues were seeking to set a new club record by winning their third consecutive road game at the London Stadium.

And inside 18 minutes, Nicolas Jackson scored twice to send Enzo Maresca's team on their way.

West Ham were denied a clear penalty before halftime as Wesley Fofana hauled down Crysencio Summerville inside the box.

Cole Palmer added a third goal on the break, bringing Chelsea's total to 10 points in the first five games.
