Goals from Victor Moses and Eden Hazard see Chelsea to FA Cup Qfinals
Chelsea head on into the FA Cup quarter-finals courtesy of a
hard-fought 2-0 win over Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium.
After a rather slow first half with few chances at either
end, Chelsea came back with a fiery touch in the second half as the
Blues took the lead 5 minutes after the break when Ramires connected with a
pass from Fernado Torres sending the ball in the net with a header. AFCON
Champion Victor Moses doubled the
lead for the Blues after excellent build-up play from the substitute Eden Hazard.
Moses had a good night as his effort and overall performance for his side team
was outstanding all through the night.
Chelsea will be making a trip to take on Manchester United at Old Trafford a week on Sunday in the FA quarter-finals. The Blues are on course for a fifth cup triumph in seven seasons.
An excited Moses tweeted this right after the match-"Great to be in the quarterfinals, great team performance. Always good to get a goal too #chelsea."
Nigeria’s Mikel Obi was not listed for the match.
