The Eden Hazard show continues as the Belgian came off the bench to inspire an unbelievable comeback win for the visitors at Anfield. The winger has been in sublime form since the World Cup in Russia and his return to the Premier League with Chelsea has been nothing short of spectacular.

The 27-year-old just keeps getting better and better under Maurizio Sarri with every passing game, and played a crucial role in helping Chelsea disrupt Liverpool's perfect start to the season. The Belgian's well-worked free-kick paved the way for the opening goal, while it took him just six more minutes to come up with a truly astonishing solo goal that sent the away supporters into a delirium of noise at Anfield.

Hazard picked the ball up from a wide area and conjured a driving run inside the area, skipping past Naby Keita and Alberto Moreno, to dispatch an unstoppable shot into the far corner. The goal was the perfect testament to the Belgian's form this season.
