00:00What a goal! Put in by Nkunku, but made by the genius of the assist.
00:16What a ball it was.
00:18Whatever plan Barrow came with, it was undone then by the genius of Xao Felix.
00:24A little scooped ball over the top and Nkunku had the calm, had the class and Chelsea had the lead.
00:37Here's Pedro Neto from the right for Chelsea, works it on to his left side of course.
00:41He's got Gusto there if he wants to use it.
00:43Now as an orthodox full-back he crosses into the penalty area.
00:46And what a finish that is, it's Nkunku again.
00:49They're proving to be too good for Barrow here.
00:55Nkunku with a delightful little flick as the ball went between his legs.
01:00He just diverted it past the goalkeeper and into the back of the Barrow net for the second time.
01:06And it is Xao Felix, and it's crept in.
01:13And it's three.
01:15And Chelsea are just too hot to handle for Barrow at the moment.
01:19It wasn't a perfect free kick in truth, but it got up and over the wall.
01:23Crept inside the post, nothing that Farman could do to keep it out.
01:27It's just been into, towards the corner, kisses the post and it hits Farman.
01:33It was really unfortunate on the back and rolls agonisingly for Barrow's sake.
01:45Here's Nkunku, on to Modric, and he squares it for Neto.
01:49And just two minutes into the second half, Chelsea extend their advantage.
01:55Initially, the ball gets won in the midfield by Nkunku.
02:01Just feeds it into Modric, and that's good decision-making from the winger.
02:06Just putting it on the plate for Neto.
02:17And the header down comes to Gillespie Hall, and it's a super save by Paul Farman.
02:23He actually controls this really well, Gillespie Hall, on his weaker side.
02:26It's not the finest of connections, but the direction is good.
02:29Trying to find the far corner, and Farman gets a vital fingertip to it.
02:35Up goes the header, it's Di Zazie, and well saved by Farman.
02:39He can't get particularly firm contact on it, I think he's wrestling with his marker.
02:47See there, Barrow's willingness and ability to play, but then it breaks down with a heavy touch,
02:52and they're opened up, and it's slotted wide by George.
02:57What an opportunity, really only just on his first significant involvement,
03:02and he's slotted a really good opportunity wide.
03:14The goalkeeper takes a chance, he takes a gamble, and it is a hat-trick for Christopher Nkunku.
03:21And a moment to forget for Paul Farman.
03:24He decided to play from the back, but he didn't decide what he was going to do with the ball.
03:27He was dispossessed, and then he was punished, and Chelsea have five.
03:34Brilliant from Nkunku, I think he just read Farman's intentions there, he was so sharp.
