The European champions, Chelsea, started last night (Tuesday) the defense campaign for the title on the right foot with a hard 0: 1 at home over Zenit.

The winning goal was signed by the glittering purchase of the summer blues, Romulo Lukaku, who hit the winning goal in the 69th minute.



For the Belgian striker, it is a direct continuation of the phenomenal ability he has displayed in European frameworks over the past two years.

Since the start of the 2019/20 season, only Arling Holland (20) and Bruno Fernandez (17) have scored more goals than Lukaku (14) in the continental factories.



Another player who recorded an impressive milestone is the man between the posts, Edward Mandy.

The goalkeeper who arrived last summer from Maran and became a key figure in the lineup of Thomas Tuchel, kept a clean sheet in the Champions League for the tenth time in just 13 appearances at the factory.

In fact, only Kaylor Navas, who has not conceded in ten of his first 11 games, has reached a double-digit number of clean goals in fewer games.

Since replacing Frank Lampard last year, Tuchel has made Chelsea one of the strongest teams in Europe overnight, and from the start of the season the Blues show that winning the Champions League was no accident.

Tuchel's team is best known for its defensive strengths (as evidenced by Mandy's achievement), and since the German arrived at Stamford Bridge, his team has kept a clean sheet 23 times in all competitions.

Of all the teams in the top five leagues, the closest team to Londoners in this category is Manchester City, who have not conceded in 16 games.



And despite all the praise for the Blues' tough defense, Lukaku has won four compliments in four games since landing back in London for 115 million euros transferred to Inter: "That's why he's here,"

Tuchel said.

After the game, "It's not easy to show ability like him, because we could not produce enough dangerous situations for him and not provide him with the balls, but he is one who does not lose confidence and faith. This is also exactly why he is one of the best strikers in the world. Romulo is very important to us And his work is super-hard, it's hard to find such quality pioneers who are just used to scoring and creating faith in everyone around them. "

"He's a killer."

Joe Cole

, a former Chelsea star who has been linked with a commentary on the game in the kingdom, was not indifferent to the Belgian's ability: "For both sides it is a heavenly deal. Lukaku manages to provide Chelsea with everything it needs. I just say that "But I think he's going to be the top scorer this season in the Champions League. He did not have such a good game today, but in the end he scored - he is a killer, as soon as the ball reaches him you know he will score."
