Chelsea punched their ticket to the FA Cup semifinals as they sauntered to a much-needed 7–0 victory over Port Vale at Stamford Bridge.
Liam Rosenior named a strong starting lineup against League One’s bottom-placed outfit and it paid immediate dividends as Jorrel Hato fired Chelsea in front after just two minutes. João Pedro doubled their tally with a well-taken finish from close range and Jordan Gabriel’s own goal just before the break sealed victory.
