Chelsea come back from two down to beat Leicester 4-2

Chelsea almost got off to the perfect start when Pedro had the ball in the back of the net after five minutes, but the Spaniard was marginally offiside when David Luiz played his pass.

However, besides the disallowed goal, it was Leicester who dominated the first half and the Foxes got a deserved goal in the 17th minute when Shinji Okazaki headed in from close range.

Things then got even better for Okazaki and Leicester in the first half when the Japanese forward made it 2-0 to the Foxes. The striker latched onto a ball from Andy King and once again squeezed a ball home from a tight angle.

Despite Leicester's dominance, Chelsea managed to get themselves back into the game just before half-time. Gary Cahill headed home from a corner to make sure the Foxes only went in at half-time with a one-goal cushion.

Chelsea were quick out of the blocks in the second half and found themselves level just five minutes after the break thanks to a wonder-strike from Cesar Azpilicueta. The Spaniard struck a stunning volley past Zieler, leaving the 'keeper with absolutely no chance.

The Blues then brought on Diego Costa, who really should have completed the turnaround, but missed a one-on-one attempt.

Chelsea piled on the pressure and forced a number of saves from Zieler in the Leicester goal, but it got more difficult for Leicester as Wasilewski was sent for a second bookable offence, just one minute from normal time.

In extra-time, there was only ever one team who was going to win the game and Chelsea made light work of Leicester's 10 men after 90 minutes.

Chelsea took a 3-2 lead when Hazard found Fabregas with a backheel and the Spaniard fired past Zieler from 12 yards.

Fabregas and Chelsea then made it 4-2 just two minutes later. Leicester failed to deal with a Hazard cross and the ball dropped to Fabregas, who half-volleyed the ball home.

The Blues then ran down the clock, keeping the ball and making it impossible for Leicester to reply.

The Foxes probably feel slightly hard done by, given that they dominated the first half, but Chelsea responded well and made the most of their numerical advantage in extra-time.
