The Nigerian striker maintained his brilliant start to life in the English top-flight after he scored yet again in the Hornet’s clash against Thomas Tuchel’s men
Emmanuel Dennis continues to set the Premier League alight after scoring his sixth league goal of the season against Chelsea.
Although it was not enough to prevent Watford from a 2-1 loss at Vicarage Road, Dennis achieved a feat no other player has achieved against Chelsea this season.
The Nigerian striker’s strike is the first goal Tuchel’s men have conceded from open play away from home in the Premier League this season.
Before Dennis’ goal, Chelsea had only conceded one goal on the road, and that was a Mohamed Salah penalty in the 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield.
But the Blues were unable to keep out Dennis, who showed quick thinking by putting the ball through the legs of Antonio Rüdiger, leaving Edouard Mendy with no chance.
The former Cologne striker has had a bright start to life in the Premier League after he signed from Club Brugge in the summer.
Only Liverpool’s Salah has more goals and assists than Dennis in the Premier League this season.

Let the NFF in time concerning the fate of Rohr as the coach of Super Eagles of Nigeria. We have less than 5 weeks to the tournament ( 2021 AFCON) in Cameroon. We need to prepare well. We have the players but lack leaders to harness these talents. What a shame. Our leaders (NFF) cannot get us a good coach to make Super Eagles a beautiful bride in football for almost six years. It's a big shame to this administration and if we fail in the forth coming AFCON, this administration of Mr. Melvin Amaju Pinnick should be held culpable and be made to account for his bad stewardships. The same goes for Mr. Shehu Dikko that has made NPFL to be like primary school tournament. No sponsorship, no consistent calendar year, no television right, bad officiating to mention a few. Indeed this present NFF will go into the history book of NFF as the worst set of bad and most uncoordinated set of people in history of Nigeria football. God bless Nigeria.
NFF are bunch of corrupt individuals they are all wicked Nigeria poilticials who have hijack the the progress of Nigeria football for their own personal game Mr pinnick is already a failure in his administration
Yes,oo,mr pinnick is dinning wit his coach.
