Chelsea went in front away to Burnley in the first half through a Ziyech goal. He got off to the best way possible in his first start in the Premier League.

It took Chelsea 26 minutes to go ahead at Turf Moor. And it took Hakim Ziyech 26 minutes to score his first Premier League goal, which was also his first start for Chelsea in the Premier League.

The ex-Ajax player beat Nick Pope from the dee with a left-footed shot after Tammy Abraham's pass. Although the Burnley keeper did his part to make it 0-1.

The shot wasn't too strong and not as close to the post as Ziyech planned, but Pope went to ground without stretching and allowed the goal from the Moroccan.

It is the second goal from the Chelsea attacker. The first came just a few days ago when scoring against Krasnodar in the Champions League.
