Chelsea made short work of Qarabag on Tuesday to register a thumping 6-0 win in Group C of the UEFA Champions League.
Stamford Bridge was buzzing again, with the return of Champions League football. And Chelsea displayed some exciting football for the home fans as the Blues made short work of the Azerbaijani side Qarabag.
The Blues were unrelenting in their offence, with 6 goals to show for their efforts. Davide Zappacosta scored on his first start in a Blues shirt and his bizarre but brilliant goal had everyone talking.
Zappacosta ran like Gareth Bale and finished like Ronaldo!

Zappacosta has more goals than Diego Costa this season. Some Costas are better than others I guess… ??♂️

Sliced shot sees Zappacosta’s name sung again. Nine years here, and Petr Cech never had a song. This guy’s got one inside 30mins.

UNREAL GOAL.

Thirty-one minutes in and Zappacosta has already won the Chelsea fans over: “He scores when he wants!”

Bakayoko also got his name on the scoresheet and the player was rightly appreciated by the fans on social media.
Bakayoko has been in for 7 minutes.
Hommie already has a goal and assist.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Y’all can have Matic ??????

Tiemoue Bakayoko won 75% of his 16 duels today. I don’t think he is struggling to adapt to the Premier League. #LEICHE #CFC

Morata, Bakayoko and Rudiger all seriously excelled today. Three great signings for Chelsea & all have their best years ahead of them.

Chelsea, as a whole, were really on song on Tuesday.
Morata scored his first Chelsea goal then assisted in the same match.
So did Bakayoko
So did Zappacosta
It really is Score and Assist FC— Dan? (@DoggoFC) September 13, 2017
