Chelsea 3 Burnley 0 match review


Chelsea ended their poor home run in the Premier league with a comprehensive win over Burnley on Saturday. It seems like Chelsea have finally come out of their poor home form dilemma with back to back wins at the Stamford Bridge.
                                                    Chelsea secured all 3 points and also managed to keep a clean sheet which has been a rare outline in their recent home games.The road was bumpy but Chelsea somehow managed to see Burnley off without conceding a goal . The visitors started of well initially and did find the back of the net only to be ruled out by the VAR. Burnley did get the better of Chelsea defenders from a set piece but it was Ben Mee who was marginally offside when he nodded the ball for Hendricks form McNeil's free kick. Chelsea dominated the game ever since and dint look  as they took the lead minutes later after a silly foul from Lowton lead to Chelsea penalty which was slotted into the goal by Jorginho in his trademark style composed finish.
                                      Burnley did have their moments in the game but it was a poor defensive display which costed them the game a communication break down between Pope and Ben Mee lead to another Chelsea goal . Reece James floated in a juicy cross for Tammy Abraham who nodded off a loose header towards the Burnley goal Ben Mee in an attempt to help his goalkeeper ran towards the goal and unfortunately bumped into him making way for the ball to go in. Chelsea kept pressing high up on the pitch courtesy of a dominant display from their fullbacks Reece James and Cesar Azpilicueta.
                  Chelsea sealed the game in the early stages of the second half as they scored yet again to make it 3-0. It was Hudson Odoi who now had his name on the score sheet scoring his first Premier League goal for Chelsea. Azpilicueta whipped in a cross Tammy couldn't make the most of it and the ball landed kindly for Odoi who slotted it past the Burnley goalkeeper seal a stellar home win for Chelsea.It was the first time after 2009 that Chelsea dint make a single substitution as Lampard broke an usual 366 game record.
