Chelsea 5 Barrow 0: Nkunku bags Carabao Cup hat-trick against minnows to give boss Maresca welcome selection headache

CHRISTOPHER NKUNKU scored a hat-trick as Chelsea cruised into the last-16 of the Carabao Cup with a 5-0 win over Barrow.

The League Two side travelled to West London hoping to pull off a huge shock but they were level for just eight minutes before Nkunku finished off a great team move.

He then back-heeled home his second of the game, meeting a Malo Gusto cross excellently.

The third went down as a own goal for Barrow keeper Paul Farman after Joao Felix’s effort hit the post then his back and rolled in.

Pedro Neto added his first in Chelsea blue before Nkunku robbed Farman in possession and completed his hat-trick.

Enzo Maresca made changes in the second-half, bringing on youngsters Tyrique George and Joshua Acheampong, as well as exiled duo Ben Chilwell and Carney Chukwuemeka.
