Good Job Done By Moses As Chelsea Eliminate Carl Ikeme & Wolves From FA Cup
Published: February 18, 2017
English football standard-bearers Chelsea are through to the sixth round of the Emirates FA Cup following a 2-0 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday evening.
Two important members of the Nigerian national team in the shape of Carl Ikeme and Victor Moses started and lasted the distance for their respective teams, while Nigerian-born striker Bright Enobakhare was an unused substitute.
Goalkeeper Carl Ikeme did exceptionally well in the first half, with the scoreboard reading goalless.
On 65 minutes, Pedro grabbed his fourth goal in the competition after he headed home a brilliant cross from Willian.
Many Wolves players were caught upfield when Diego Costa capitalized on a loose ball and fired into the bottom corner from close range with one minute left on the clock.
Moses and his Chelsea teammates will discover their opponents in the quarterfinals on Sunday evening
