HAS HAZARD PROVEN WHY HE’S WORTH £100M?
Joseph Omoniyi
Chelsea playmaker and forward, Eden Hazard once again single handedly took the blues above rivals, Arsenal and Spurs as he hit two splendid goals to lift Chelsea to a deserved 2-0 home win over West Ham.
The Belgian ‘zigzagged’ several players to score a brilliant opener midway through the first half and killed off the visitors’ resistance in the 90th minute as Maurizio Sarri’s side strengthened their aspirations of Champions League qualification.
Chelsea were especially captivating throughout the opening 45 minutes and now sit above Tottenham and Arsenal, though both teams have a game in hand.
The Blues’ triumph served as a significant boost at the outset of a busy period that takes them to Slavia Prague for the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie on Thursday.
