Michy Batshuayi Caps Late Chelsea Rally to Beat Watford 4-2

Substitute Michy Batshuayi and defender Cesar Azpilicueta each scored inside the final 20 minutes to help Chelsea win a six-goal thriller against Watford at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Chelsea won 4-2 to move above the Hornets into fourth in the Premier League after coming back from 2-1 down in the second half. Watford had gone in front after goals from Abdoulaye Doucoure and Roberto Pereyra cancelled out a wonder strike from Pedro.

It was left to Batshuayi to come off the bench to score twice, either side of Azpilicueta's lead-taking goal, to get the champions back on track.
