With an amazing 3 - 0 victory over Malmo at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have cruised into the last 16 of the Europa League.
Callum Hudson-Odoi netted a beautiful
second half goal. The Blues, who led 2-1 from the first leg, started slowly but improved markedly after the break.

Olivier Giroud gave them the lead on the night by tapping home, before Ross Barkley floated in a free-kick moments after Rasmus Bengtsson was sent off.

Hudson-Odoi, 18, then drove in from the right before firing in a late third.

Who knows?! This result might ease the pressure on Manager Maurizio Sarri.

Chelsea suffered a 2 - 0 defeat at Stamford Bridge by Manchester United.

The Blues will lock horns against Manchester City in Sunday's Carabao Cup final, and Tottenham in the Premier League next week.

These are pretty big tests for the Blues.
