Chelsea 5 Stoke City 0: Moses Dazzles As Chelsea Outclass His Former Club
Published: December 30, 2017Chelsea completely obliterated Stoke City in a resounding 5-0 victory at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
Victor Moses who had a loan spell with the Potters in the 2014-2015 campaign started against his former employers for the encounter as they delivered a rampant first half showing.
Chelsea took very little time to open the floodgates and were ahead with less than three minutes played, Antonio Rudiger climbing high to nod in a Willian's delivery and put the Premier League champions in front.
Danny Drinkwater added an absolute stunner just before the 10th minute, the midfielder taking a deft touch at the edge of the area before striking a venomous effort into the top corner with City's keeper, Jack Butland no way near.
It was three with barely 23 minutes on the clock with Pedro producing a piece of brilliance, taking a pass from Willian before dragging a stunning finish into the bottom far corner.
Willian picked himself from the turf to add another from the spot in the 73rd minute after he was felled in the area before Davide Zappacosta made it five, striking a terrific finish in from nearly 25 yards as the Blues moved into second on the division standings.
