Chelsea required a late strike from their Argentine dynamo to overcome their fourth-tier visitors in the Carabao Cup second round
A heavily-rotated Chelsea side was forced to come from behind to edge League Two AFC Wimbledon out of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night. Mauricio Pochettino's line-up had distinct future-meme potential - despite the fact it still cost northwards of £150 million to assemble - as the Argentine fielded a predictably youthful XI.
However, after both teams had converted first-half penalties, it took £106m substitute Enzo Fernandez to win it for Chelsea late on, as he pounced on a poor pass out from the Wimbledon goalkeeper before curling the ball into the open net.
