Jamaican born Raheem Sterling sent a stern reminder of his class as he hit two-goals past Leicester City, to inspire 10-man Chelsea to victory at Stamford Bridge in the EPL on Saturday.
Sterling who seemed to be finding his footing at his new club , hit all the right notes on the fourth with a master class at the Bridge.
The England international who has come close to his maiden Chelsea with early chances, opened his Blues account with an absolute beauty.
The forward launching a looping volley from outside the box to deceive the Leicester custodian and land directly inside the goal to break the deadlock in the 47th minute.
The goal a well need reprieve for the London club, who were relegated to 10-men after losing Conor Gallagher in minute 28.
The former Man. City player moved with confidence despite playing with a teammate less and that confidence yielded his second in the 63rd minute for a 2-0 advantage.
The one-man advantage began to tell shortly after as Leicester were able to pull a goal back five minutes later through Harvey Barnes. 2-1 the game read after 66 minutes.
That however would remain the consolation effort as the Blues were able to fend off the remaining attack and hold on the for the remaining 90 minutes to bag a valuable three points.
