Eden Hazard Winner Sees Chelsea Past Bournemouth in Carabao Cup Quarter-Final

Chelsea booked their place in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, as Eden Hazard came off the bench to fire them to a 1-0 win over Bournemouth.

The first period was a frustrating one for the home side, as their overwhelming dominance of the ball and superior openings weren't matched by a ruthlessness in front of goal.

In the second half the match followed a similar pattern, with Bournemouth struggling to get a foothold in the game. Eventually, the Blues were able to get their opener six minutes from time, as Hazard's deflected shot finally saw Asmir Begovic beaten.
