Chelsea striker Jackson 'so happy' scoring first home goal

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson was delighted scoring in Friday's victory against Luton.

It marked his first goal in front of the home support.

"I'm so happy to score my first goal at the Bridge," Jackson told chelseafc.com.

"It was an amazing night, scoring for this club and getting our first three points of the season. The lads were brilliant and this is just the beginning.

"It was a great cross from Raheem [Sterling] and I was there to finish it off. I loved it! What a night.

"Obviously scoring for Chelsea is just an amazing feeling, but it was even better to do it at Stamford Bridge and in front of the fans.

"I thank them for their support and I hope there's more to come!"
