There are just 6 minutes gone and Chelsea have the lead against Hull.
The is a rotated team, but one with plenty of quality still in it, and we saw that on this opening effort.
Mateo Kovacic pinged a nice ball out to the right, Azpi picked it up and sent a first time ball into the box, and after a bit of pinball, Michy Batshuayi was on hand to fire it home.
It’s a much needed goal for his confidence, and that of the whole team as they struggle to find any consistent form.
Let’s hope we can bag a couple of more and send out the kids for the second half.

Kovačić spreads it wide to Azpilicueta whose cross eventually finds it way to the feet of Batshuayi and his deflected shot bounces in to make it 1-0. #CFC pic.twitter.com/EjOyHcVHKx
