Chelsea made it a perfect six wins out of six in the Conference League when they concluded the league phase against Irish side Shamrock Rovers at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night. It had been a competition to remember so far for Enzo Maresca’s table-topping Blues, who have continued to make sweeping changes and rattled off five consecutive victories against Gent, Panathinaikos, FC Noah, Heidenheim and Astana.

With automatic progress through to the last 16 already assured, Chelsea gave more chances to youngsters on Thursday after Josh Acheampong finally ended his contract stand-off this week, with Tyrique George also impressing. But there was no Mykhailo Mudryk after the Ukrainian winger tested positive for a banned substance and was provisionally suspended from football while he awaits the results of a ‘B’ sample, having insisted he has never knowingly used any banned substances and vowed to prove his innocence.

Teenage striker Marc Guiu helped himself to an opportunistic hat-trick in a chaotic first half in west London, with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Marc Cucurella also on target in a 5-1 thrashing on the night as Markus Poom scored the only goal for the visitors.
