On This Day: Chelsea conquered at the Boleyn


Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, in association with Basset & Gold....

West Ham United's outstanding start to the 2015/16 season continued on this day four years ago when Chelsea were defeated at the Boleyn Ground.

Mauro Zarate opened the scoring, while Nemanja Matic was dismissed for collecting two first half yellow cards.

The Blues still levelled through Gary Cahill, but West Ham were not deterred and Andy Carroll's towering header secured a 2-1 victory.
