In terms of Stamford Bridge’s debut, he doesn’t get much better than Koulibaly’s debut – except, of course, for the score itself. So far so cool from K2!
“I was amazed to score with my second shot at Stamford Bridge, it was really cool. I wasn’t expecting it but I was really happy to do it in front of our fans. It was a great atmosphere and when everyone shouted my name I was really happy and I hope it’s not the last time, I want to I feel like it next time.”
