5. Lukaku Brace

Much to the chagrin of the traveling support, former Chelsea man Romelu Lukaku scored a brace and fired his side to victory. The first goal was especially tough, as he showed all the qualities Blues fans envisioned that he would bring to the club. Lukaku received the ball on the wing, darted inside, shrugged off Cesar Azpilicueta, and finished far post.

The second goal created some controversy, as there were hints of offside. Replays showed that the call was tight, but Kenedy may just have kept Lukaku onside at the near post. With their top forward not scoring and having been sent off, it would be especially cruel to see a former player perform so well, and score twice in the process.
