Chelsea 3-0 Malmo FF: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis | Europa League 2018-19

#4 Chelsea seal the deal with two beautiful goals

Barkley scored a sumptuous free kick

How often have this Chelsea side, low of confidence, get the first goal in such situations and then begin to flow freely with intent and laser-like sharpness?

Once again, Olivier Giroud broke the deadlock in the 55th minute and from there on, the hosts never looked back. Ross Barkley and Callum Hudson-Odoi took two well-constructed goals, highlighting their true potential.

Ross Barkley scored for the second time in as many consecutive starts with a splendid free-kick from the left. He stepped up to the dead ball and struck it with the right amount of venom and dip, leaving the Malmo custodian rooted to his ground.

Moments later, Hudson-Odoi rounded off the scoring with a much-deserved goal from the right. Once again, it was Willian who sprayed a pin-point pass to the U-17 FIFA World Cup winner, who took it all upon himself, surged infield and drilled a shot to the left bottom corner.
