Frank Lampard gave Chelsea fans a glimpse of their new-look exciting attack as the former Ajax man started alongside fellow new boy Timo Werner. Ziyech’s afternoon was cut short in the second half though when he appeared to pick up an ankle knock.

The No 22 went to the ground before receiving treatment from Chelsea’s medical staff.

It was then decided that he would not continue as he left the field of play.

Chelsea went ahead thanks to Werner early on before Willy Caballero saved a Neal Maupay penalty.
