EDITORS COMMENTS
Great moment in Chelsea Football Club history captured in this stunning photograph by Darren Walsh: Baba Rahman's debut for the Blues in their thrilling Capital One Cup victory over Walsall at Banks Stadium in September 2015. The Ghanaian international, who had only joined the West London giants from Augsburg earlier that summer, was thrown into the deep end as he started at left-back in the third round tie. The young defender looked calm and composed from the outset, slotting seamlessly into the Chelsea backline and helping to keep a clean sheet in the first half. The second half saw Walsall step up their game, but Rahman continued to impress, making crucial interventions and showing his attacking prowess with several surging runs down the wing. The Saddlers equalized in the 84th minute, but Chelsea rallied and secured a late winner through a stunning strike from Eden Hazard. Rahman's performance caught the eye of the Chelsea faithful, with many hailing him as a potential star in the making. The defender went on to make 12 appearances for the Blues in all competitions that season, before being loaned out to Schalke and then Reims. This photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of that night at Banks Stadium, with Rahman's determined expression and the sea of blue shirts in the background. It's a reminder of the promise and potential that football can bring, and the thrill of seeing a young player make his mark on the biggest stage.
