Chelsea won for the first time in 10 matches on Saturday when they beat Bournemouth 3-1 at the Vitality Stadium.

The Blues traveled to the South Coast having lost six games in a row under interim manager Frank Lampard.

But Conor Gallagher fired Lampard's side in front after just nine minutes.

Matias Vina hit back with a fine goal for Bournemouth midway through the first half.

But late strikes from Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix saw Chelsea win a match for the first time since March 11.

Badiashile's goal, which came when he got on the end of a Hakim Ziyech free-kick, was his first since moving to Chelsea from Monaco in January.
