Pedro power pumps up shorthanded Blues
Chelsea's Pedro scored and made a huge impact in his Premier League debut as the champion got its campaign off the ground with an entertaining 3-2 win at West Bromwich Albion while Manchester City won 2-0 at Everton on Sunday.
Chelsea had taken one point from its opening two matches but Spain forward Pedro, signed this week from Barcelona for 30 million euros ($34.18 million), opened the scoring and created a goal for Diego Costa before Cesar Azpilicueta added a third.
James Morrison atoned for an earlier penalty miss to score twice as West Brom looked to capitalize in the 54th minute dismissal of John Terry - who was substituted for the first time ever under Jose Mourinho in last week's loss at Manchester City - but Chelsea held on for its first win of the season.
