Chelsea cruised into the FA Cup fourth round with a 5-0 win against League Two side Morecambe.

This was the Blues' first win in five matches in all competitions, but Harry Burgoyne's early save from Christopher Nkunku's penalty in the 17th minute meant the match got off to a rocky start for the home side.

Defender Tosin Adarabioyo's deflected shot from outside the box eventually gave Chelsea the lead a few minutes before half time. Nkunku then atoned for his penalty miss with a goal to double the home side's lead shortly after the interval.

Tosin curled a beautiful long-range goal for his second of the evening at Stamford Bridge, before Joao Felix's well-taken quick-fire brace sealed an emphatic win for Chelsea to ensure they advance into the next round and end their winless run.
