the player and scoring against the former chelsea player, not lost on many fans this evening. chelsea then went to goals to the lovely finish from pedro, it was as well. scored in the champions league final against united macro a few years ago and sent chelsea well on their way. then even hazard, come on to his comments in a little bit. found inside the penalty area, hazard dispatched a penalty and from there we thought it was game over but then a stunning strike from a sister to for arsenal and we thought a comeback might be on. a draft first happened in anything that happened hazard scored his second of the evening and chelsea's four to wrap up evening and chelsea's four to wrap up the game as a contest also arsenal had a couple of chances later on but they did not amount to much. chelsea lifting the trophy,

their managerfor all the much. chelsea lifting the trophy, their manager for all the cruises and he has come in from fahn so far this season, for the style of football he is taken into the league cup final football he is taken into the league cupfinaland football he is taken into the league cup final and third in the premier league and of course champions league and of course champions league qualification and a first trophy of his entire career as well. a dripping achievement for chelsea this season as you can say for arsenal, very difficult as a set up for europa league football again next year. yes, in we saw and in hazard inspiring chelsea to victory, may well be his final match. all indications are he will be his final match. he was asked in the post—match interview whether he had played his last game for the club and he said i think this is goodbye. i think he wants a new challenge, so real madrid reportedly in for an offer in excess of £100 million, seven seasons at chelsea come up in their man for the number of thesis

but looks he has played his final game for the club and one away to bow out. a fantastic way to bow out, lifting that trophy. but arsenal, very contrasting fortunes. you mentioned they will be in the europa league at their manager has a big job on his hands despite a first season job on his hands despite a first season where things could have been worse. it has not been a terrible season for him. he had taken over the squad from arsene wenger, he had difficulties throughout the season, they flattered and deceived at times. ultimately, ithink they flattered and deceived at times. ultimately, i think you'll be judged if they could get into the champions league season. that has not happened but he has in all body rebuilding job. the defence and large parts of midfield need total ripping up. alex ferguson when he left, mentors are not and has had also the problems and we could all sort of problems in vacancy arsenal need a longer building job with

arsene wenger and shown retirement door. anyway, thank you so much for joining us on sports day. johanna konta has survived a bruising encounter with american wild card lauren davis to reach the third round of the french open for the first time in her career. konta hadn't been keen on clay, but this season she's reached finals at both the morocco and italian 0pens, and took the first set 6—3. but the american responded, moved up a gear and raced through the second set, winning it by 6—1. konta recovered to move into a 5—0 lead in the final set, and although davis then snatched three games, konta recovered again to win it 6—3. she'll play world number 46 victoria kuzmova next. last yea r‘s runner—up, sloane stephens, is also through to the third round. the number seven seed beat sara sorribes tormo of spain in straight sets.

they go into the tournament as favourites on home soil, which captain eoin morgan says he's happy about. the south africans have been dealt a hefty blow, though, as andy swiss reports. welcome to the oval, where the waiting is very nearly over, because tomorrow morning, 25,000 fans will be packed into those stands behind me as england get their world cup under way against south africa. it's fair to see england do not have a great record in recent world cups. the last tournament, four years ago, they were knocked out at the opening stage. but there is a real confidence around the team. they are the favourite with the bookmakers. their batting is particularly impressive. lots of hefty hitters, the likes ofjos buttler, jonny bairstow, and of course the captain eoin morgan. the level of expectation is there for a reason.

for the last few years, ourform at home in particular has been outstanding. that is the reason it is there. world cups i have played in and people in the changing have played in, we've gone in with very little expectation. and we have not done that well. i would pick this position over any other. one of england's opponents tomorrow, south africa have never won the world cup, they have suffered an injury blow on the eve of the tournament. they will be missing their most experienced fast bowler. he is a big loss to our team. we did not expect that when we picked the squad. he was probably about 60% when the squad was picked. we anticipated for this to happen. but our attack is a strong one. tomorrow, there will be chopping and changing to make sure we can take on england. the absence of that player a real blow to south africa. as for the format of the tournament,

it is relatively straightforward. ten teams taking part. they will play a round robin stage, with the top four teams going through to the semifinals. as for the other main contenders, of course there's india, the second favourites with the bookmakers. they have, for many people, the top batsmen in the world. also, australia, the reigning champions. they're welcoming back steve smith and david warner after their suspensions for ball tampering. it will be interesting to see what sort of reaction they get from the crowd. but england, very much the team to beat when the tournament gets under way here at the oval tomorrow morning. now, let us take some time to reflect a bit more on tonight's europa league final. chelsea defeating arsenal 4—1 in azerbaijan. david is there. the chelsea boss bringing home a european trip eva has he done enough to save his job?

what a story it has been for him. if you think, 28, 29 years in management, had not won a major trophy until tonight and despite the roller coaster season that he has endured sincejoining roller coaster season that he has endured since joining from napa roller coaster season that he has endured sincejoining from napa late last summer, he has not finished third in the premier league, runner—up in the league cup and got his hands on a piece of silverware in the olympic stadium behind me. what we do not know is whether it will keep him in position because many of the chelsea fans do not seem to find him there cup of tea. they have chanted and heckled against him over the course of the season and not entirely sold on his style of play and there have been reports in recent days thatjuventus are lining up recent days thatjuventus are lining upfor him recent days thatjuventus are lining up for him to be manager to replace maximally auto allegro. now sarri, we are told is heavily admired by juventus but we are to find out in

the coming days and weeks if that will happen. but he has a strong case now of staying in charge at chelsea. chelsea has a habit of hiring and firing managers but still having success. but what a story would be if sarri comes back from the debts of what we saw earlier in the debts of what we saw earlier in the season. think back to the league cup final when he stormed down the tunnel ina cup final when he stormed down the tunnel in a rage and had a plan refuse to come off as is altitude. came to this final and entering session style hamster off again to my throwing his cap to the floor, kicking it around. he clearly was not happy about something that perhaps that was motivation because he leaves the trophy and chelsea makes a long journey back home in high spirits. david is joining us from azerbaijan. all the reaction to the football tonight on the bbc website and app. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers.
