Morgan Rogers scores early opener for Chelsea against Hull City

Morgan Rogers recorded a seventh-minute goal for Chelsea in the opening stages of the match against Hull City at Stamford Bridge. Cole Palmer initiated the attacking sequence, connecting with João Pedro, who set up Rogers for the finish past Konstantinos Tzolakis. This goal marks the third of the 2026/27 season for Rogers, who has secured a direct goal contribution in each of Chelsea's first four Premier League fixtures. With this performance, Rogers joins a group of players including Didier Drogba, Cesc Fàbregas, Diego Costa, and Eden Hazard to reach that milestone for the club. The midfielder has registered seven total goal contributions across his first six matches in all competitions since joining Chelsea this summer. Rogers previously opted to join Chelsea over Arsenal during the recent transfer window.
