The first goal of the game fell early. After six minutes Nicolas Jackson appeared to deflect a Malo Gusto shot and open the scoring.
Although they had several chances to increase the lead, they lost the tie in the 43rd minute, when Alexander Isak took a ball on the edge of the area and took a very well-placed shot.
In the second half, when Newcastle was playing best, Chelsea struck with two goals. In the 57th minute, Cole Palmer scored with a shot from outside the area and Mijailo Mudryk added the score in the 76th.
Jacob Murphy scored a great goal in the 89th minute and that’s why the game had a dramatic ending.
The next duel for Chelsea will be on Sunday at 7:45 against Leicester City, for the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.
