    FT: Hull 1-2 Chelsea!!! All over at the KC Stadium and Chelsea are through despite a late Hull fightback. Tomori made it 0-2 for Chelsea in the 64th minute after Batshuayi had put Lampard's men ahead before substitute Grosicki brought Hull back into the game through a deflected free-kick. He was their best player by some distance and despite late Hull pressure, Chelsea held on to go through to the last 16. Thanks for joining us and hope to see you again soon!

  • 45'
    HT: Hull 0-1 Chelsea!! Half-time at the KC Stadium and Chelsea are absolutely cruising here. Hull started brightly, but since Batshuayi's sixth minute goal, the away side have been comfortable. Chelsea have forced one or two good saves out of Long, but have absolutely dominated possession and territory. Hull have done next to nothing bar one or two dangerous attacks. Join us for more in a bit!
  • 45'
    What a save by Long! Chelsea work it on the far side, Alonso crosses it for Azpilicueta who controls with his chest before Long makes a fine save at his near post!
  • 43'
    Eaves!!! The ball is put back into the box after the set piece is initially cleared and Eaves chests the bakll with his back to goal, turns and then hits a weak effort at Caballero! Should have done better with the finish.

    Hull have a free-kick 30 yards from goal after a foul by Zouma.
  • 41'
    Batshuayi is flagged offside. I don't think he was.

    Great chance for Chelsea!! Down the near side again, Barkley squares for Batshayi, but a combination of Caballero and Burke prevent it going 0-2.
  • 35'
    Bowen!! A dangerous move by Hull ends with a scuffed shot by Bowen which goes slowly into the hands of Caballero.
  • 34'
    Nice play! Pedro, Hudson-Odoi and Barkley combine beautifully around the Hull box, but the attempted pass to Mount doesn't find its intended target.
  • 33'
    Mount denied by Long!! The former Derby man is one and one with the goalie, Long comes out of his goal though and stops the shot.
  • 30'
    Finally Hull attack through Wilks, but then he keeps on pulling Azpilicueta inside the box and the Hull player is penalised.
  • 29'
    Lampard's men are dominating proceedings here. Hull clearing their lines for now though.
  • 26'

  • 25'
    Chelsea attack down Hull's left again through Hudson-Odoi and his cross is unable to find Pedro.

    It looks like Chelsea are in no rush to extend their lead here and just look for the opening when it comes along.

    Mason Mount sees his effort from outside the box blocked.
  • 19'
    Mason Mount's ball in is headed away by the defence.
