These enthralling moments, which range from incredible goals to shocking upsets, set the tone for what looks to be an exciting football season.
Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister
Liverpool is losing out on midfield targets Moisés Caicedo and Roméo Lavia to Chelsea recently, which is frustrating the team. But in their 1-1 draw with Chelsea, newcomer Alexis Mac Allister anchored the midfield and put forth a consistent effort on his debut. At Stamford Bridge, the Argentinian’s superb pass set up Luis D’az’s goal for Liverpool by releasing Mohamed Salah, and he also contributed three tackles and one interception.
Jonathan Jackson and Chelsea
Axel Disasi scored on his Chelsea debut, but Jackson won even more admiration from the crowd at the end of the game. In the 1-1 tie, which was the sixth straight match between the teams, Jackson took four shots, and his movement truly stood out. The summer acquisition outran all other players this past weekend with 21 off-the-ball runs against Liverpool. The 22-year-old attacker has exciting things in store for Chelsea supporters.
Crystal Palace, Jefferson Lerma
After spending five years at Bournemouth, Lerma left the club in the summer. He was then recruited by Crystal Palace on a free transfer, and on Saturday, he made his debut against Sheffield United. He won 12 aerial duels, more than any other player in the first round, and Palace came away with the three points.
