Carabao Cup

Chelsea strike, Alvaro Morata was the hero for his team on Wednesday night, as he scored the winning goal at Stamford Bridge to help the Blues secure a dramatic 2-1 win over AFC Bournemouth.

The win booked a place for Chelsea in the semifinal of the Carabao Cup also known as the League Cup.

Brazilian superstar, Willian had given the host a 13th-minute lead and it was initially looking adequate to earn Chelsea passage into the last four.

However, Bournemouth were not going out without a fight and they did pull up a late equaliser through Dan Gosling.

While it was expected that the game will at least drag into extra time, Morata was on hand to restore Chelsea’s lead and the win they deserved on the night.

In the other quarter-final clash of the night, Manchester United were not able to progress, as they were sent packing by league side, Bristol City who beat them 2-1.
