Chelsea fans raise almost £10,000 for family of tragic fan who died aged just 33 after captain Cesar Azpilicueta dedicated 4-0 win over Crystal Palace to lifelong supporter

Fans may not be able to congregate in stadiums but the football community is still clearly strong after Chelsea fans raised nearly £10,000 for the family of a fellow supporter following his death earlier this month.

A JustGiving page was set up following Andrew Wood's death on October 1 aged just 33.

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta also dedicated the club's 4-0 victory against Crystal Palace last weekend to the lifelong supporter.
