After six losses in a row, Chelsea recorded their first victory under interim manager, Frank Lampard as late goals from Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix saw off Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
Chelsea found the back of the net inside nine minutes when N’Golo Kante crossed from the right and Conor Gallagher found space in between defenders to head home.

However, Bournemouth hit back when they cut Chelsea open with a brilliant move that ended with Matias Vina curling a wonderful shot into the far top corner.
Blues went ahead eight minutes from time Badiashile headed home a free-kick and Felix made it three for Chelsea to wrap up a win for the Blues first time in 7 games.

The result means Arsenal must defeat Newcastle tomorrow to still be in the running to win their first premier league title in 19 years.
An Arsenal win tomorrow will reduce the deficit to just one point but City having a game in hand.
