On the day Roman Abramovich confirmed his intention to sell Chelsea FC, Thomas Tuchel's side came back from a goal down twice to defeat a stubborn second-tier side Luton Town 3-2 on Wednesday and book their place in the English FA Cup quarter-finals.

Reece Burke sent shockwaves into the Chelsea camp when he put Luton Town ahead in just the 2nd minute. Saul Niguez though equalised 25 minutes later.

The Hatters though once again found the lead courtesy of Harry Cornick's goal in the first half. But despite a below-par performance, Chelsea avoided a scare when Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku scored 2 goals within 10 minutes to help the Blues win.
