  • GIROUD!!! 1-0 CHELSEA! What a lovely goal by the hosts! The Frenchman neatly links up with Pulisic, who releases Chilwell on the left, and the striker is in the right place to head home the England international's cross at the near post.

  • EL GHAZI!!! 1-1! Villa are level! Although, Chelsea will feel aggrieved after having a man down injured. The visitors play on and El Ghazi ghosts in at the far post to meet Cash's deep cross, before slotting his volley through the legs of Mendy.
