Moses Shines Again, Mikel Subbed As Conte Grabs First Chelsea Win


Super Eagles winger Victor Moses churned out another impressive performance in the pre-season for Chelsea who defeated RZ Pellets 3-0 in Klagenfurt to hand Antonio Conte his first victory as Blues boss, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.
Moses who is desperate to revive his career at the Stamford Bridge after signing a four year extension last summer, was instrumental to the Blues' first two goals in the encounter.

The 25 year old winger, playing from the left-wing raced down left-flank after being released in a swift counter attack. His sublime pass found Matic back who then released Willian whose pass from the right flank found Bertrand Traore to score the opener following a rebound in the 41st minute.
Moses who has earlier hit the upright in the 23rd minute swung in a corner he had won for Reuben Loftus-Cheek to head home and put Chelsea 2-0 up.
The former Liverpool and Stoke City winger was however denied a goal for all his efforts when his goal-bound strike was cleared off the line in the 81st minute of the encounter. He was replaced by Kenedy in the 88th minute.
Nathaniel Chalobah scored Chelsea's third goal after he weaved past two defenders before picking the bottom corner out via a post. 
His compatriot, Mikel Obi came on for Nemanja Matic in the 85th minute of the win.
