'Pulisic's hard work & patience has paid off' - Tomori 'happy' for Chelsea team-mate after hat-trick at Burnley

The Blues defender was delighted to see the summer signing grab his first goals for the club in a comfortable win at Turf Moor at the weekend

Christian Pulisic's superb treble in Chelsea's 4-2 win over Burnley on Saturday was a just reward for his "hard work and patience" behind the scenes, according to Fikayo Tomori.

The United States international grabbed his first goals in Chelsea colours since completing a £58 million ($75m) move from Borussia Dortmund earlier this year, on his first start since August.

The 21-year-old opened the scoring with a brilliant individual effort just after the 20-minute mark, before repeating the trick just before the half-time whistle.
