Chelsea hosted Aston Villa in a Premier League match on Sunday. Chelsea's energetic home display ensured a quiet day for goalkeeper Petr Cech, with the return of the flair that defined Chelsea in the opening weeks of the season when the team topped the standings.
Chelsea striker Fernando Torres began the goal glut after three minutes. Then David Luiz curled a free kick into the top corner to make it 2-0. The hosts extended the lead in the 34th minute as Branislav Ivanovic headed in, 3-0. Chelsea.
Frank Lampard marked his 500th Premier League game and first league start since October. In the 75th minute, Ramires slotted the ball through the goalkeeper’s legs. Four minutes later, Oscar hit Chelsea’s sixth from the penalty spot after being fouled.
Even the six unanswered goals didn’t reflect Chelsea’s complete supremacy, and Hazard produced another goal in the 83rd. In the stoppage time, Ramires found the net, again. Final score, 8-0 for Chelsea.
