Stamford Bridge welcomed Chabi Alonso to Chelsea’s first official home game of the new season, and the London’s “Blues” defeated Luton 2-0 to advance to the next round of the Carabao Cup.
Starting the match, 35-year-old Danny Welbeck opened the scoring with a header in the 50th minute, and the result against the League One side was sealed in the 79th minute when Odofin was credited with an own goal.
With a 3-0 victory thanks to Smith Rowe, Rodrigo Muñiz, and another goal by Gonzalo García, Fulham overcame the hurdle of Wimbledon.
Alonso’s “Blues” will face Leeds next, while the “Cottagers” will take on West Ham at the Olympic Stadium in the capital.
