Eden Hazard’s goal drought in the Premier league stretches back a year and 29 matches, but the seemingly impossible finally happened on Saturday, with the Belgian winger finding the back of the net twice.
Hazard has been a shadow of his former self this season, scoring twice in the FA Cup but remaining barren in the Premier League. It was an absolute shocker when the winger finally managed to find the back of the net against Bournemouth. He went on to surprise everyone again by scoring yet another goal as the Blues cruised to a 4-1 victory over the Cherries.

6 – Bournemouth have been banned from all football for 6 years after letting Eden Hazard finally score a goal. Match-fixing.
