This season’s first European triumph came for Chelsea on Wednesday night at Stamford Bridge, as they defeated AC Milan 3-0 in the Champions League.
Reece James, a key player for Chelsea, became the youngest player to ever score and provide an assist in a Champions League game during yesterday’s match. Reece James, a Chelsea player, set a record by scoring and setting up a goal in the same UEFA Champions League match at the age of 22 years and 301 days.
Typically, James was a part of a goal that led to the second and third goals scored by Aubameyang. He has now become the youngest player in Chelsea history to ever score and provide an assist in the same Champions League game. Along with his customary excellent defending, dribbling, and crosses from the right wing back position.

In the second half, Reece James was unstoppable down the right side because AC Milan did not respond when the teenage wing-back found space. Prior to putting the ball in the back of the net minutes later, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was first given the ball.
The 22-year-old was the youngest Chelsea player to ever do both in the Champions League and collected the night’s official Man of the Match award for the second game in a row. And of course, he isn’t just succeeding on the offensive side of the game, unlike many of his (want-to-be) classmates!
