    BARNES GOES INTO THE BOOK

    GOAL FOR CHELSEA!
    All too easy. Saul put the ball into the box and Tarkowski miss-kicked his clearance and Pulisic then nudged home from close range.

    GOAL FOR CHELSEA!
    Havertz scores his second. It was put on a plate by James after Kante slipped the ball to the full back in the right hand side of the area. The German didn't get much of a connection on the ball but it crept over the line.

    BURNLEY GET THE SECOND HALF UNDERWAY
    HALF TIME
    A BETTER GAME THAN SCORELINE SUGGESTS
    Both sides have had good chances to go in front but parity seems fair as they go into the changing rooms.
    45'
    ANOTHER GREAT CLEARANCE FROM TARKOWSKI
    Jorginho's bullet from 20 yards out had Pope scampering to his right but thanks to his centre back putting his head in the way the ball never reached the goal.
    42'
    TWO MORE CHANCES FOR McNEIL
    McNeil was through on goal and then dallied in possession before Chalobah dispossessed him, then Rodriguez slide-tackled the Blues defender and McNeil had the ball again but once more he was tackled.
