Overview

• Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-1 at Stamford Bridge, with Moises Caicedo’s long‑range opener and 18-year-old Estevao Willian’s late finish deciding the match after Cody Gakpo had equalised.
• Caicedo dominated midfield and drew lavish praise from broadcasters, with Jamie Redknapp calling him world class and Alan Shearer and Gary Neville hailing his season form.
• Estevao, a summer arrival from Palmeiras, scored his first Chelsea goal off the bench and said Enzo Maresca urged him to play freely and look to decide the game.
• Maresca was sent off for sprinting down the touchline to celebrate the winner, leaving assistant Willy Caballero to handle post-match duties.
• The victory halted Chelsea’s league winless run and handed Liverpool a third straight defeat, with an international break now offering rest for Caicedo after he was left out of Ecuador’s friendlies.
