Chelsea lead!
It was an impressive start from the Blues in spite of the hostile home crowd, and after wasting a couple of early chances they finally got the job done.
Mason Mount picked up Hakim Ziyech’s through ball, ran into space and then crossed for Romelu Lukaku, who tapped in and didn’t even bother celebrating. When we counter like that, there’s just no stopping us.
It’s another “open play assist” for Mount and another goal for Lukaku, whose tally for the season is edging towards respectability, despite few recent starts.
