Chelsea beat Cardiff City 3-1 on Tuesday night at their stadium, with the game goalless until Garnacho's sharp finish in the 57th minute. Cardiff equalized through David Turnbull in the 75th, but Neto struck from distance seven minutes later, and Garnacho added a second in stoppage time to earn man-of-the-match. Enzo Maresca's 11 changes, including starts for youngsters like Acheampong and Buonanotte, paid off in the scrappy tie against the League One leaders. Away supporters chanted Maresca's name, and he praised their unwavering backing as Chelsea eye a 10th straight domestic cup semi-final.
