He’s only 18 years old and has a bright future ahead of him, with Marc Guiu having moved from Barcelona to Chelsea this summer for €6 million. However, after tonight’s miss, the young striker will be the subject of ridicule in London and beyond for the next few days. It’s unbelievable what he managed to miss in the 51st minute of the match against Servette in the Conference League qualification playoff. Fortunately for him, Chelsea took care of business and with a 2-0 win, they await the return leg next Thursday in Switzerland.##NAJAVA_MECA_8284404##Guiu owes Christopher Nkunku and Noni Madueke a steak dinner, as the Blues secured the expected victory thanks to their goals. The first came from a penalty in the 50th minute, and the second after a fantastic assist from Enzo Fernandez in the 76th. In the meantime, the young Spaniard embarrassed himself. Although the season has just begun, his miss is already a strong contender for the funniest moment when compilations are made in May next year.
Guiu was completely unmarked in front of an open goal, but he mishit the ball, allowing the Servette goalkeeper to make the save. Even Jérôme Frick himself likely couldn’t believe he managed to stop it.Shortly after the miss, Enzo Maresca substituted the newcomer, bringing in Madueke, Fernandez, and Palmer, which led to the Blues’ second goal. The Italian coach chose to rest some of the regular starters after the opening Premier League loss to Manchester City (0-2) ahead of the away match against Wolverhampton. This decision proved to be a good one as the team, with their second-half goals, managed to secure a solid lead for a calm trip to Switzerland.HOWWW GUIU pic.twitter.com/qw9y9VExKN— ٌ (@ftblwaz) August 22, 2024
