Chelsea secured the Europa League crown with a 4-1 win over fellow Premier League side Arsenal in Baku.

The Blues took a while to get going, but eventually took the lead in the 49th minute as Olivier Giroud excellently guided a header into the bottom corner.

Maurizio Sarri’s side then scored twice in five minutes to make it 3-0, with Pedro scoring before Eden Hazard rolled in a penalty to, essentially, put the game to bed.

Alex Iwobi did pull one back for Arsenal with a cracking strike from distance in the 69th minute, but Hazard scored three minutes later to round off the scoring.

Sarri had not won a major trophy in his career going into the game, which makes this moment extra special for the Chelsea boss – who can now start to prepare for next season.
