Chelsea have finally won a game of football under Frank Lampard. The Blues had lost their previous six games in all competitions following the appointment of Lampard as caretaker-manager until the end of the season.
Conor Gallagher's header from close range saw Chelsea take an early lead before Matias Vina equalised for Bournemouth moments later. Noni Madueke was a constant threat throughout the first-half as the January signing completed more take-ons than any other player on the pitch.
Chelsea fans booed some of Lampard's substitutions despite being forced into a late change as Ben Chilwell had to be withdrawn after suffering a hamstring injury. Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix sealed the three points with two late goals as the Blues mathematically secured their Premier League survival with a crucial win at the Vitality Stadium.
