Chelsea Defeats Southampton in 6-0 win
Vondigest reports that SOUTHAMPTON were dismantled by Chelsea as Thomas Tuchel’s side were back to their very best after a 6-0 win
Chelsea put their woeful 3-1 defeat to Real Madrid behind them and thrashed Southampton 6-0 on Saturday after a dominant display on the south coast. Thomas Tuchel’s side found themselves 4-0 up inside 32 minutes, and it could have been double figures if not for the heroics of Fraser Forster.
Chelsea delivered the perfect response to their midweek woes with a 6-0 thrashing against Southampton to strengthen their grip on the top four.
A rampant first-half display saw Chelsea race into a four-goal lead after just 32 minutes, as Marcos Alonso, Mason Mount, Timo Werner and Kai Havertz all capitalised on a leaky Southampton defence.
With the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham closing in on the top four, it was a much needed win to alleviate unwanted pressure.
This online platform understands that Chelsea started the second-half in similar fashion, as it took Werner just four minutes to tap in a fifth before Mount made it six with his second of the game shortly after, as Southampton were humiliated on home soil. Their dominant display allowed them to ease off the gas with three points wrapped up so early, and they will now turn their attention to Real Madrid ahead of Tuesday’s second-leg.
