Soon afterwards a Willian shot was turned around a post by the goalkeeper for a corner. Chelsea breached the Palace defences early in the second half, as David Luiz stepped forwards into midfield with the ball. Hazard fed Willian, who was denied by Guaita, and a Barkley shot deflected wide from the follow-up.
