Saul scores his first Chelsea goal in FA Cup tie

Saul has shown that he can still play well despite hardly playing this season under Thomas Tuchel. The former Atletico Madrid man helped his team in a difficult situation at a key moment.

Luton Town had hit the front in the second minute with a goal from Burke, but the Blues fought back in the 27th minute. Werner took a poor touch and it was in the perfect position for Saul in the D.

Frist goal for Chelsea from a footballer who was expected to do much better when he left Atletico Madrid. He has played just 17 games in all competitions, but he did not play much in those games. 

13 minutes after that 1-1 goal, Luton Town once again responded in a good move by Mendes Gomes, who ended up giving a pass to Cornick, who scored to put Luton back ahead.
