    FT: Chelsea 6-3 Leeds

    There is some good light-hearted banter between Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer, when it is announced that Palmer has been named the player of the match.

    "I had four assists, he scored a penalty," says a baffled Rogers.

    He has a point.

    Leeds were unlucky with the penalty, but not sure that excuses conceding four goals in 12 minutes.

    Chelsea 6-3 Leeds

    A hugely entertaining game for the neutral, with nine goals, eight of which came in the second half.

    Leeds held a 2-0 lead after goals from Tarik Muharemovic and Brenden Aaronson.

    Chelsea got a fortunate penalty before Cole Palmer, one of four subs to come on at the start of the second half, converted and then made it 2-2 two minutes later with his second.

    Pedro Neto and Danny Welbeck made it 4-2 to Chelsea, before Dominic Calvert-Lewin gave Leeds hope. However, further goals from Valentin Barco and a second from Welbeck made it 6-3.

    And that's how it stands. The first set is over, can we have a second?

    I reckon Danny Welbeck is going to prove a great piece of business regardless of his age, after all Kane and others still banging them in.

    Danny Welbeck

    Two for Danny Welbeck and Leeds, who were 2-0 up, have been hit for six.

    Pedro Neto does really well down the right wing, Cole Palmer puts it back for Valentin Barco and his 25-yard effort is going well wide.

    However, Welbeck is there to divert the ball into the net with a cushioned header.

    That will do it. Chelsea, after a real rollercoaster of a 90 minutes, are going through.

    Chelsea 5-3 Leeds

    Leeds fans are still in great voice. At 2-0 up after 48 minutes, they were confident of seeing a first win at Stamford Bridge since 1999.

    Thirty-two minutes later they had seen five goals in their side's net.

    Six minutes of added time to play out. Leeds need to score twice to take it to penalties.

    It has been one crazy game so don't rule anything out.

    Morgan Rodgers is a genius! A massive breath of fresh air. Four assists.

    Len

    Have been a Chelsea fan since 1963 and have enjoyed the different eras since Cooke and Osgood through Vialli, Zola and Hazard, but I am enjoying this PlayStation Football with Rogers and Palmer.

    Barry

    Alonso deserves a lot of credit, all of the substitutes have been brilliant and turned the game around top class manager.

    Leeds want a penalty and Daniel Farke is not impressed. He fumes that Noah Okafor had been caught when making a cross, nothing given.

    This is another poor goal isn't it.

    A poor goal to concede, where there was too much time, too much space. He [Morgan Rogers] flashes it across the goal, the keeper [Michael Zetterer] goes down, not sure if he gets a hand on it, but it's another one that they will be disappointed at.

    Leeds have a chance to score their fourth and the game's ninth, only for Josh Acheampong to fling his body in the way to block Ao Tanaka's low, drilled effort.

    What more can happen in the second half? How about a booking for the Chelsea manager? Yep, now Xabi Alonso gets a card.

    Goal number eight in the match and the seventh in the craziest second half you could wish to see.

    A reminder that it was 0-1 at the break.

    Morgan Rogers, with three assists in the opening four Chelsea goals, is again involved. He fizzes a low ball into the box from the right, Michael Zetterer, who has had a truly awful second half, gets his hand to the cross but can only divert it into the path of Valentin Barco.

    The Argentine drills the ball into the net to restore Chelsea's two-goal lead.

    On Chelsea's third goal...

    It seems a very, very soft finish to end in the back of the net.

    On Chelsea's fourth goal

    That's way too easy isn't it. Straight through the keeper.

    On Leeds' third goal

    Game on.

    Dominic Calvert-Lewin

    This is some cup tie. Leeds looked finished, but now they have hope.

    Two substitutes link up, Noah Okafor is free down the left and he slides the ball into the middle and Dominic Calvert-Lewin runs on to it and hits it first time into the net.

    Game on, again.

    Leeds need one more to potentially take the tie to penalties.

    Chelsea 4-2 Leeds

    Leeds fans behind the goal call for a handball against Pep Chavarria, but referee Jarred Gillett is not interested and instead awards a corner.

    That comes to nothing.

    If Estevao is sitting on the bench wondering what he needs to do to start more games, it's exactly that: control the game, create chances, and score when presented with the opportunity. Cole Palmer doesn't mess about. Estevao's young though, he's got time to learn.

    Shaun

    Alonso has certainly made his point with those subs.

    Steve

    Chelsea's acquisition of Rogers is the best bit of business Chelsea have done for an English attacking midfielder since Cole Palmer, they compliment each other nicely.

    By the way, three of Chelsea's four goals have been created by substitute Morgan Rogers.

    That is three of the four goals scored by Blues substitutes, as well as three of the four assists.

    Talk about impact subs.
