'I had put pressure on myself to find net,' says relieved Mason Mount after ending 25-game drought with hat-trick in Chelsea's demolition of Norwich

Mason Mount could not stop smiling as he held the match-ball after his first Chelsea hat-trick, admitting he had put himself under pressure to score following a barren streak.

Mount had gone 25 games without a goal for club and country but he finally found the net three times as Thomas Tuchel’s men trounced woeful Norwich.

His hat-trick included a twice-taken penalty after Tim Krul moved prematurely while saving Mount’s first spot-kick.
