Hull City walked into Stamford Bridge on September 12, 2026, and walked out with all three points. Mohamed Belloumi scored twice in six minutes to overturn an early Chelsea lead, sealing a 2-1 victory that continues one of the most impressive starts to a Premier League season by a newly promoted club in recent memory.
Chelsea had looked comfortable after Morgan Rogers opened the scoring around the 7th minute.
Belloumi’s six-minute masterclass
The 24-year-old Algerian winger took roughly 21 minutes to respond to Rogers’ opener, finding the net around the 28th minute to level the score. Six minutes later, he struck again, this time assisted by Oliver McBurnie, to put the visitors ahead at 2-1.
Two goals in six minutes from a player who was plying his trade in the Portuguese second division just two years ago. Belloumi joined Hull from Farense on August 30, 2024, signing a four-year contract.
