Chelsea romped to a convincing 5-1 win over Newcastle United on Saturday but were left to rue an injury to John Terry that forced him off.
The centre-back had to be substituted with what looked like a muscle injury in the 38th minute with the Blues already 3-0 up by that point.
Diego Costa opened the scoring early after he collected a through-ball from Willian and slotted it under the body of Rob Elliot, before Pedro doubled his side’s lead after capitalising on a defensive error minutes later.
Willian then got his name on the scoresheet before Pedro got his brace by latching on to a lofted ball from Cesc Fabregas.
With Newcastle reeling, Bertrand Traore had time to net his maiden Premier League goal before Andros Townsend smashed in a consolation goal for the visitors.
