Chelsea survived a scare against League One high-flyers Cardiff City, winning 3-1 to progress to the Carabao Cup semi-finals.
After a scoreless first half where a rotated Chelsea side struggled, Enzo Maresca introduced £400m worth of talent from the bench, including Alejandro Garnacho and Pedro Neto.
- 57’: Garnacho opens the scoring following a defensive error.
- 75’: David Turnbull equalizes for Cardiff with a stunning header.
- Late: Neto restores the lead before Garnacho seals the win in added time.
The result extends Chelsea’s streak of 19 unbeaten League Cup ties against lower-division teams and sets up a two-legged semi-final in January.
