Match Events
5'GOAL! Dynamo Kyiv 0-1 Chelsea (Giroud)
GOOOOAAALL! Giroud taps it home following a corner and that's almost certainly tie over already. It's 1-0 on the night and 4-0 on aggregate to Chelsea!
20' Dynamo have one ruled out
NO GOAL! Dynamo Kiev briefly think they've got a goal back. Garmash is played in from a nice through-ball from Sidcley, and buries it into the far corner from a tight angle. But the offside flag is up against the forward, and he was a good yard off if not more.
33'GOAL! Dynamo Kyiv 0-2 Chelsea (Giroud)
GOOOOAAAALL! Giroud grabs his eighth Europa League goal of the season, arriving on the end of Alonso's cross. Even the most optimistic Kiev fans will know there's no hope now. 2-0 to Chelsea.
46'GOAL! Dynamo Kyiv 0-3 Chelsea (Alonso)
GOOOOAAAAL! Alonso adds to his earlier assist with a strike of his own, following Hudson-Odoi's surge down the right. The defender arrives late in the middle having started at the back post. Comprehensive from Chelsea, they lead 3-0 on the night.
59'GOAL! Dynamo Kyiv 0-4 Chelsea (Giroud)
GOOOOOAAAAL! It's a hat-trick for Giroud! The big Frenchman is on hand from Willian's whipped free-kick to notch his ninth Europa League goal in as many games. 4-0 to Chelsea and another big blow for Kiev after their spirited start to this half. We could be heading to double figures on aggregate...
78'GOAL! Dynamo Kyiv 0-5 Chelsea (Hudson-Odoi)
GOOOOAAAL! Hudson-Odoi gets in on the act to make it 5-0! The teenager raced in behind to meet a throughball, and no one could catch him before finishing beyond Boyko. 8-0 on aggregate to Chelsea then...
Match Reports
Chelsea cruised into the Europa League quarter-finals as Olivier Giroud's hat-trick helped secure a resounding 5-0 win over Dynamo Kiev at the Olympic Stadium on Thursday.
The Blues travelled to Ukraine with a commanding 3-0 lead from the first leg in London a week ago and any faint hopes that Alyaksandr Khatskevich's side had of clawing their way back into the tie were extinguished by Giroud's fifth-minute opener.
The Frenchman added a second shortly after the half-hour mark before Marcos Alonso tapped in a third just before the interval.
Giroud completed his hat-trick in the 59th minute and Callum Hudson-Odoi added a fifth 12 minutes from time as Maurizio Sarri's side made it four wins from their last five games in all competitions.
