Chelsea 3-1 BATE Borisov: Ruben Loftus-Cheek hat-trick steers Blues to comfortable win

A Ruben Loftus-Cheek hat-trick inspired Chelsea to a comfortable 3-1 victory at home to BATE Borisov on Thursday night. On just his second start of the season, it took Loftus-Cheek just two minutes to score his first Chelsea goal since April 2016. The midfielder made it 2-0 six minutes later, and he sealed an unlikely hat-trick in the second half when curling an effort into the far corner (53). Aleksei Rios scored a late consolation (79) for the Belarusian side, but victory maintains Chelsea's perfect start in Europe, and three wins from three in Group L means they are within touching distance of reaching the knockout stages.
