Chelsea can be confident of advancing to this season’s Conference League semi-finals after achieving a 3-0 victory over Legia Warsaw in the first leg of their quarter-final encounter.
The journey to the Polish capital posed a potential challenge for a significantly rotated Chelsea team, who started the match amid a hostile environment from the home supporters.
In reality, Enzo Maresca’s team needed an entire half to find their rhythm, struggling to consistently create opportunities during the opening 45 minutes and ultimately taking the lead after halftime adjustments.
Tyrique George scored his first senior Chelsea goal a few minutes after the interval, before a brace from substitute Noni Madueke sealed a handsome victory in the end.
