Chelsea, who spent more than £170m on players over the summer, were the architects of their own downfall in the first half.

United States forward Brenden Aaronson scored the opening goal in Leeds United's 3-0 win against Chelsea on Sunday, continuing Jesse Marsch's side's impressive start to the 2022-23 season.

Chelsea were unfortunate to be one goal down after missing some early chances, but soon after the opener, they found themselves two goals behind as Rodrigo emphatically headed in Jack Harrison's delicate free-kick to earn the Spaniard his fourth Premier League goal of the season.

In a commanding performance, Leeds added a third in the 69th minute -- Daniel James' cross was nodded down by Rodrigo into the path of Harrison, who fired past Mendy to make the lead comfortable.
