Havertz already justifies its price: hat trick in Chelsea's win

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal remains unstoppable and this Wednesday certified their qualification for the second

, after beating Leicester, current leaders of the English

, 2-0 on a day in which they shone and, in what way, the German Kai Havertz, who debuted as a scorer with Chelsea with a treble.

Not even the seven changes introduced by the San Sebastian coach in relation to the last league match, including that of

, who stayed on the bench from the beginning, altered the winning dynamics of the "Gunners".

Opposite was another of the fashionable teams of the "Premier League", Leicester, which like Arsenal has won the first two league games.

But if Arteta retained German goalkeeper

, full-backs Rob Holding and Sead Kolasinac, as well as midfielder Bukayo Saka in the starting XI, Leicester coach Brendan Rodgers completely changed the team in relation to which the past prevailed. Saturday by a clear 4-2 at Burnley.

A whole revolution that did not diminish the competitive character of the "foxes", who made things tremendously difficult for Mikel Arteta's men.

In fact, Leicester, who already six minutes after a great occasion in the boots of the Nigerian

, was able to take the lead at 40 minutes on the scoreboard in a shot from midfielder James Maddison, which crashed into the post.

Possible cross against Liverpool

But if luck did not smile on the locals, the opposite happened in the case of Arsenal, who took the lead in the 57th minute after an own goal from defender Christian Fuchs.

The Austrian center-back sent a shot from Ivorian

into the nets

, who, after bouncing off the post, hit Fuchs' right leg that ended up putting the ball into his own goal.

A stroke of fortune that seemed to cheer Arsenal, which definitively sentenced the contest with

goal

, which established the final 0-2 in the last minute of regulation time.

Triumph that sealed Arsenal's pass to the round of 16, which could be measured in the round of 16 with Liverpool, which they already defeated last August in the penalty shoot-out in the final of the Community Shield -the English Super Cup-, if they Jurgen Klopp managed to beat Lincoln this Thursday.

Everton

Everton did not fail either, which fulfilled the forecasts and certified their pass to the next round, after beating the modest Fleetwood Town, a team of the English third category, 2-4.

A triumph for which Everton did not need the help of Colombian

, to whom Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti gave a break this Wednesday.

But if Ancelotti reserved the "coffee" international, he did not miss another of the great sensations during his visit to the Highbury Stadium in Fleetwood, forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin, the top scorer in the English championship.

But this time it was not Calvert-Lewin, who scored three goals in the last league game against West Bromwich, the catalyst for the offensive game of the "toffes", but the Brazilian Richarlison.

The Brazilian attacker, another of the indisputable starters in Ancelotti's plans, put Everton's victory on track, after signing two goals in the first thirty-five minutes of play.

A comfortable income that did not prevent, however, that those of Liverpool passed more difficulties than anticipated, after seeing how the locals were placed 2-3 at 58 minutes with a goal from midfielder Callum Camps.

Trouble that ended the Brazilian striker Bernard, who set the final 2-4 for Ancelotti's team with just over a quarter of an hour left for the conclusion of the match.

Everton will face West Ham in the next round, who beat Hull 5-1 on Tuesday.

For their part, Chelsea sealed their ticket to the round of 16, after beating Barnsley, a team from the English Second Division 6-0, in a match in which the German attacker Kai Havertz, author of a triplet, shone with his own light .

The young German international, 21, began to justify with his performance against the modest Barnsley the 77 million euros that the "blues" paid on September 4 to Bayer Leverkusen for taking over his services.

Havetz, who had started the first two league games, made his debut as a scorer with the London team, after signing the momentary 0-2 after 29 minutes.

A goal in which the 21-year-old German international demonstrated one of his main qualities, his ability to break into the opponent's area, by taking advantage of a ball filtered by Mason Mount to beat the rival goalkeeper with quality.

So much so that he seemed to encourage the German, that he found the ideal partner in Tammy Abraham.

If in the first goal of Havertz the striker let the ball pass between his legs to reach the German, in the second, Abraham enabled his teammate's arrival to the area with a nice heel.

Much easier seemed the third and last goal from Havertz, who skillfully and talentedly solved a deep pass, of course, from Abraham, which left the new Chelsea player alone in front of the rival goalkeeper.

Chelsea will meet in the round of 16 with the winner of the duel between Leyton Orient and Tottenham, which was canceled after the ten cases of coronavirus detected in Leyton.

However, it is not yet known whether the English Federation will consider Tottenham the winner of the tie or will look for a new date to play the match, as claimed by the modest Leyton Orient, a set of the fourth category of English football.
