Fabianski had a good game until the end

Lukas Fabianski got Swansea out of jail often in the first half. The Polish goalkeeper made a number of great saves to keep Chelsea out, especially a brilliant one in the 27th minute to deny Cesc Fabregas a second goal. The Spaniard deliberately volleyed the ball into the ground from a Diego Costa cross and it bounced menacingly towards the Swansea goal but Fabianski reacted just managed to tip the ball away with an amazing save.

He also commanded the box well and made another noteworthy save in the 47th minute to deny Eden Hazard. If it wasn’t for the Polish keeper, Chelsea would’ve scored a few more goals.
