Sydney FC vs. Chelsea: Score and Twitter Reaction to Post-Season Friendly

Loic Remy scored a wonder goal to give Chelsea a 1-0 win over Sydney FC during Tuesday's post-season friendly, as the Blues showed little signs of fatigue with the summer break right around the corner.

Sydney played well but couldn't unlock Chelsea's defence, which was its usual dominant self, and one flash from Remy was enough to decide the match in favour of Jose Mourinho's side. Eden Hazard dazzled the Australian crowd, and plenty of youngsters got their chance to show they're ready to contribute heading into next season.

For many Australian fans, this was their first opportunity to watch the Blues in person, and it's only normal players like John Mikel Obi were looking forward to playing this match, per Chelsea's official Twitter account:

John Mikel Obi says he is excited about seeing our fans at the @ANZStadium tonight.
