Burnley 0-4 Chelsea: Reece James, Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic complete second-half blitz

Chelsea stunned Burnley with three goals in the space of nine second-half minutes on their way to a 4-0 victory at Turf Moor.

Reece James, making his first start of 2022 after injury, got the first a couple of minutes into the second half and then had a hand in the next two - both finished by Kai Havertz - with Burnley imploding as they lost back-to-back home league games for the first time this season.

It got worse for the hosts with a little more than 20 minutes to go when a mistake from James Tarkowski left Christian Pulisic with the easiest of finishes from barely a yard out.
