Taiwo Awoniyi Sets Record in Nottingham's Win Over Chelsea

In a Premier League match on a Monday, Taiwo Awoniyi, a striker for Nottingham Forest, made headlines by scoring a brace in his team's 3-1 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Awoniyi's first goal was particularly notable as it was scored just two minutes into the game, making it the fastest away goal recorded against Chelsea in the Premier League.

This achievement surpassed the previous record held since December 2013 by Jay Rodriguez, who scored for Southampton in 13 seconds. In addition to Awoniyi's contributions, his teammate Igor Jesus also scored during the match, helping Nottingham Forest secure three crucial points.

Looking ahead, Awoniyi aims to lead Nottingham Forest to victory in their upcoming clash against Aston Villa in the Europa League semi-final return leg scheduled for Thursday.
