Chelsea wing-back Marcos Alonso was the hero on Saturday, as he scored a brace to help give Chelsea a 3-0 lead against Leicester City.

The Spaniard was in spectacular form against Leicester, and almost got a hatrick, as he bombarded the left flank all through the game.

Speaking of Alonso, Nemanja Matic was happy with his impact. He said: “It was a great performance, I’m very happy for him and for the team. He almost scored the third one, but the most important thing is the three points. That puts pressure on the teams behind us and to continue like this is good.”
