#4 Hudson-Odoi and Willian put the game to bed as Chelsea progress

What a sublime goal!

Just when it looked like Chelsea would have to dig another result out, Callum Hudson-Odoi, not for the first time, produced a moment of sheer brilliance and guile. Throughout the game, he was seen filling the wider areas and taking on Morgan Fox.

But only once, he drifted infield and played on the edge. Much to the 18-year-old's credit, Andreas Christensen found him, but it was job half done. The teenager's first touch was simply magnificent, but with his second, he wrong-sided the full back and doubled Chelsea's advantage.

The away side didn't get on with their forward play and as a result, hardly seemed like reducing the deficit. Just before the final minute, Willian received a one-two from Olivier Giroud, who was simply brilliant with his link-up. The Brazilian put the game beyond doubt with a fine finish.
