Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>Raheem Sterling inspired Chelsea to an impressive comeback win as Burnley slumped to their fifth successive Premier League home defeat of the campaign.<\/p>\n

Eighteen-year-old French forward Wilson Odobert marked his first Premier League start by drilling low and hard past Robert Sanchez to send home fans into raptures at Turf Moor.<\/p>\n

Chelsea were disjointed for spells but were back on level terms before half-time thanks to an unfortunate own goal.<\/p>\n

A cross by Sterling, back in the starting XI after a virus, struck the knee of Belgium defender Ameen Al-Dakhil and looped over James Trafford into the net.<\/p>\n

Chelsea then scored three times in a strong second-half showing to take the points.<\/p>\n

Sterling, who has not featured for England since the World Cup, won a penalty after being fouled by Brazilian defender Vitinho, which allowed Cole Palmer to score his first goal for the Blues since moving from Manchester City.<\/p>\n

The four-time Premier League winner with Manchester City then scored his side’s third with an arrowed finish after Conor Gallagher had spotted his run.<\/p>\n

Play restarted after Sterling’s goal before referee Stuart Attwell stopped the game as a check by the video assistant referee (VAR) for a potential offside was continuing.<\/p>\n

However, the goal was eventually allowed to stand.<\/p>\n

Substitute Nicolas Jackson sealed the points with a spin and finish, with Sterling once again involved in the move.<\/p>\n

Having won at Fulham on Monday, it is the first time Chelsea have secured back-to-back away wins in the Premier League since October 2022.<\/p>\n

Sterling sends reminder to Southgate<\/p>\n

This was a comprehensive showing by Mauricio Pochettino’s side as they rallied after falling behind to secure a confidence-boosting win heading into the international break.<\/p>\n

Chelsea have found goals hard to come by, yet with Sterling running the show they had no such problems in attack in east Lancashire.<\/p>\n

Sterling has been left out of a fourth successive England squad as the Three Lions get ready to play Australia in a friendly and Italy in a Euro 2024 qualifier.<\/p>\n

Yet the 28-year-old sent a reminder to Gareth Southgate of his qualities by being involved in all of his side’s goals.<\/p>\n

This was only Chelsea’s seventh top-flight win in the calendar year and they remain a work in progress under Pochettino, with Arsenal expected to provide a much sterner test when the two sides meet on 21 October.<\/p>\n

But having gone into September’s international break with four points from four games, they now appear to be moving in the right direction with goals beginning to flow.<\/p>\n

This win lifts Chelsea to 10th in the table with 11 points from eight matches.<\/p>\n
