Chelsea Get Easy Win…Against Malaysia

Winners: John Terry lifts the trophy after Chelsea’s 4-1 victory against an Malaysia XI at the Shah Alam Stadium

English football giants Chelsea cruised to a 4-1 victory over a Malaysian selection as part of their pre-season Asia tour on Sunday.

Bertrand Traore opened the floodgates in the fifth minute, tapping home a low cross from Kevin De Bruyne after a deft dummy from Romelu Lukaku.

The Blues doubled their advantage just before the half hour mark, as De Bruyne – returning from a loan spell at Werder Bremen – smashed home an unstoppable half volley after taking Lukaku's flicked header in his stride.

An awkward landing followed the scorching shot however, and the promising Belgian was stretchered off moments later clutching his knee.

But team manager Jose Mourinho dismissed concerns of a serious injury after the game.

Lukaku put the tie to bed in first-half injury time with a near-post finish to make it 3-0.

The second half was pretty much a procession as Chelsea were barely threatened by a Malaysian side who lacked the spark to trouble the Blues' defence.

There was drama in the dying stages of the match as Victor Moses drove home a fourth for Chelsea in the 88th minute.

The Malaysian fans finally had something to cheer about in stoppage time as Fadhli Shas headed home a consolation goal for the home side.

Mourinho said he was satisfied with his team's performance.
