Chelsea cruise past Dynamo Kiev, towards Europa League quarters

Pedro turned home an intricate backheel from Olivier Giroud to open the scoring on 17 minutes and only some wayward finishing and fine goalkeeping from Denys Boyko kept Kiev in the game before the break. A third straight victory maintains Chelsea’s momentum and a much-needed turnaround from Sarri, who seemed on the verge of the sack just a few weeks ago.
Sarri’s side finally had the breathing space they craved 25 minutes from time when Willian curled a wonderful free-kick into the top corner.
