Chelsea matched a club record as they secured a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace in the FA Cup on Sunday evening.
The Blues weathered an early Palace storm at a fully-packed Wembley Stadium, with two second-half goals – from Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Mason Mount, settling the contest.
Loftus-Cheek became the 20th player to find the net for Chelsea this season, equalling a club record first set in the 2015/16 season.
Kai Havertz is the club’s current leading scorer with 13 goals, one ahead of Romelu Lukaku and Mason Mount, who netted his 12th of the campaign with the second goal against Palace at Wembley.
The trio is joined by Timo Werner in the double digits bracket with 10 strikes, with the latest in Madrid in the Champions League.
