"Cole Palmer hit a stunning first-half hat-trick as Chelsea won their fourth straight Premier League game under Liam Rosenior with a 3-1 victory over bottom-side Wolves at Molineux. Palmer starred on his return to the Blues starting XI with a treble inside 38 minutes as the visitors ran riot in the first half, with Tolu Arokadare pulled one back in an improved second half for the strugglers but it was not enough to halt a third straight league defeat as relegation edges closer."
"But after getting the ball in the Wolves box for pretty much the first time, the visitors were awarded a penalty when Matt Doherty tripped Joao Pedro. Up stepped Palmer for the spot-kick and the England man made no mistake in sending the keeper the wrong way and nestling the ball into the bottom corner to put his side in front."
