Chelsea crushes Nottingham with a three-goal victory and approaches the top of the English league

Chelsea achieved a deserved victory over their hosts Nottingham Forest with three clean goals, in a match held today Saturday as part of the eighth round of the English Premier League.

The first half ended without goals, despite the numerous chances that arose for both teams in front of the goals, before Chelsea's attack exploded in the second half. Josh Achiempong opened the scoring in the 49th minute, and Pedro Neto added the second goal just three minutes later, before Reece James capped Chelsea's three-goal tally in the 84th minute.

This victory represents Chelsea's second consecutive win after their victory last week over Liverpool 2-1, and enhances their ambition to compete for the top of the league. Chelsea raised their tally to 14 points in fourth place, two points behind leaders Arsenal, and one point behind second-placed Liverpool, who will face Manchester United tomorrow Sunday.

On the other hand, Nottingham Forest suffered their third consecutive loss, keeping their tally at five points and occupying seventeenth place, in an attempt to overcome the relegation zone that is pressuring the team this season.
