Chelsea had a tough first half in the third round FA Cup match, but the second half turned out differently.

Mauricio Pochettino's team beat Preston North End 4-0.

The first half was goalless, with Preston definitely not giving in to the Premier League team.

In the second half, Armando Broja sparked the festivities by precisely heading the ball into the net. Other goals were scored by Thiago Silva, Enzo Fernandez, and an amazing penalty kick by Raheem Sterling.
