Moses on target as Chelsea thrash Brighton

Chelsea had a comfortable 4-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion at The Amex on Saturday afternoon.

Super Eagles wing-back Victor Moses scored his first Premier League goal of the season to seal the emphatic victory for the hosts.

Chelsea flew into a two-goal lead before Brighton barely had time to catch their breath.

Eden Hazard got the Blues in front after just three minutes when he swept a right-foot shot past Mat Ryan.

The Seagulls were still at sea when William doubled Chelsea’s lead in the 6th minute from an excellent interchange with Hazard and Michy Batshuayi.

Chris Hughton’s men battled back and should have had a penalty when Willy Caballero tripped Ezequiel Schelotto, but referee Jon Moss turned down their appeal before the first forty-five minutes ended.

Despite having acres to run and many players to beat, Hazard charged forward and calmly rolled the ball into the bottom left for his second of the afternoon and Chelsea’s third in the 77th minute.

Twelve minutes later, Moses wrapped up the scoring.
