The Argentine winger came off the bench at the start of the second half, with his team trailing 2-1 to Qarabag. In the 52nd minute, Garnacho shone with a goal to help Chelsea equalize 2-2. This was also the final result of the match.

This goal helped Garnacho become the first player to score for two different English clubs in the Champions League before the age of 21. Previously, he scored in this arena for MU in 2023, when he was only 19 years old.

After leaving Old Trafford to join Chelsea in the summer transfer window, Garnacho is struggling to compete for a starting position. He has only scored 2 goals for “The Blues” after 9 matches in all competitions.

Although Garnacho shined individually, the performance of the entire Chelsea team against Qarabag disappointed fans. Although rated higher, coach Enzo Maresca's team played without cohesion and almost paid the price if it weren't for the former MU player's moment of brilliance.

Coach Maresca made 7 changes from the starting lineup in the victory over Tottenham in the Premier League on November 2. Key players such as Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez and Pedro Neto were all rested, causing Chelsea to have difficulty in developing the ball.

With this draw, Chelsea still have a chance to qualify for the Champions League knockout round, but coach Maresca admitted that the team needs to improve significantly if they want to go further.

2 goals help MU defeat Chelsea On the night of September 20, MU struggled to defeat Chelsea 2-1 at home in the highlight match of round 5 of the Premier League thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro.
