Chelsea have won the FA Youth Cup for the fifth consecutive season following their 4-0 thrashing of Arsenal in the final on Monday as reported by the BBC.
The game at the Emirates produced four goals, all falling to Chelsea as they marched on to an unprecedented fifth trophy in a row. The Chelsea starlets were a different class to Arsenal’s who were outshone in front of their own fans.
Chelsea became the first team since Manchester United’s legendary Busby Babes to win it five times in a row, according to ESPN.
The 4-0 win followed a 3-1 win for Chelsea in the first leg hand the Blues a 7-1 aggregate scoreline that spelled their dominance in the competition and in the country. Antonio Conte’s youth side have gone almost unmatched by several top clubs in the country, with this final appearance, their seventh since 2010.
Billy Gilmour opened the scoring for Jody Morris’s side on the 10th minute mark, with a precise strike from the edge of the box following a corner.
Dujon Sterling and substitute Tino Anjorin added two second half goals and Callum Hudson-Odoi knocked in a brace to secure the Blues another trophy in an amazing journey the youth system have embarked since Roman Abramovich took over as club owner.
