Despite Chelsea’s early dominance, Bournemouth threatened a comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayan came closest to reducing the deficit in the first half when he raced behind Chelsea’s defense. However, goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez produced an excellent reflex save to preserve the Blues’ two-goal advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pedro Neto produced an impressive run past Antonio Silva before delivering a precise pass to Joao Pedro, who fired into the roof of the net to make it 3-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bournemouth briefly responded through Evanilson, who diverted Moises Caicedo’s attempted clearance into the net following a set-piece situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, any hopes of a dramatic comeback quickly disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joao Pedro completed his brace with another clinical first-time finish after meeting Pep Chavarria’s driven pass inside the penalty area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
