Chelsea secured a second Premier League win in as many games under manager Xabi Alonso as they came out on top in another thrilling contest beating Brighton 4-3 at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues dominated the first half and took advantage of some early pressure, and a mistake from Bart Verbruggen, as Romeo Lavia poked in the opening goal. Pedro Neto then arrived in the far side of the box to meet a Morgan Rogers cross to double the lead but Joao Pedro rolled in a fine finish to send Chelsea three goals up.
But Brighton pulled a goal back before the break as Malick Yalcouye blasted in a rocket to keep the Seagulls in the game. Things improved for the visitors as a Pascal Gross shot deflected off Joao Pedro to reduce the deficit to one.
