Senegal international Edouard Mendy claims his second clean sheet under Thomas Tuchel orders as German technician registers his first ever Chelsea victory.

A new era has started in Chelsea since last week with the sacking of Frank Lampard and the arrival of Thomas Tuchel.

However, the history’s debuts would have been better should Blues defeat Wolves for the former PSG manager’s first game which ended in a goalless draw.

But the wait is over, Tuchel has now a win with the London outfit as Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso secured maximum points for the home side against Burnley with a clean sheet for Edouard Mendy.
