Abraham matches Lampard with FA Cup hat-trick for Chelsea vs Luton

Tammy Abraham emulated his manager for Chelsea in their 3-1 win over Luton on Sunday, becoming the first Englishman since Frank Lampard to net an FA Cup hat-trick for the Blues.

Abraham scored twice in the first half and once in the second as the Blues saw off some spirited opposition from the Championship.

He was the first Chelsea player to score a hat-trick in the competition since Brazilian playmaker Oscar against MK Dons in 2016, and the first Englishman since Lampard against Macclesfield in January 2007.

Promisingly for Chelsea, Lampard’s effort helped his side on their way to the 2007 FA Cup final, where they beat Manchester United 1-0 with an extra-time winner from Didier Drogba.
