Burnley 0-4 Chelsea

Burnley started this match against the European Champions the better side. The Clarets should have taken a lead into halftime, but for poor finishing.

Wout Weghorst had a good chance to put Burnley ahead, but his effort was cleared off the line by Thiago Silva.
Edouard Mendy almost conceded directly from his own mistake in the 30th minute. Lennon pounced on a loose pass from Kante before pulling the ball back for Westwood. The midfielder`s cross into the box was missed by Mendy who intended to punch the ball away. However, the ball fell kindly to McNeil who couldn’t convert from just a few yards out.

The Blues turned on the style immediately after the restart. Reece James’s brilliance opened the scoring for Chelsea. The English defender placed the ball perfectly after twisting and turning to get away from his marker inside the box.

Moments later Kai Havertz headed in the second from a Christian Pulisic cross. James turned provider for the third goal just a couple of minutes after the second goal. Reece James squared the ball to Havertz who had the easy task of tapping it home for 3-0.
