Caicedo used his head to gain control of the ball. |
Rested by coach Enzo Maresca for fear of physical overload, the Ecuadorian midfielder was expected to be able to enter the field in the second half. But Romeo Lavia's early injury in the 8th minute forced "Nino Moi" (nickname Caicedo) to enter the game early.
After arriving, Caicedo made a daring tackle in the home field. Caicedo fell flat after a fierce fight. But as soon as he was lying on the grass, the Ecuadorian midfielder used his head to knock the ball off his opponent's feet. The clip went viral on X , with the comment: "This is crazy, what Caicedo showed was extraordinary."
Caicedo has been in fine form this season. Under Maresca, Caicedo has become one of the most complete box-to-box midfielders in the Premier League. From a defensive midfielder, he has become the heart of Chelsea, both blocking and organizing attacks.
According to Opta , Caicedo leads the "The Blues" squad in tackles, interceptions and blocked shots this season. At the same time, he scored 4 goals and added 1 assist in all competitions.
Experts say Caicedo is evolving rapidly. Although Chelsea left Azerbaijan with only 1 point, the "Caicedo symphony" in Baku still left fans ecstatic. Caicedo is turning into one of the most versatile midfielders to watch in Europe today.
