Frank Lampard will toast his first win as Chelsea boss by spending the evening in front of a baby monitor after his young Blues downed Norwich.
Academy products Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount grabbed the goals in a thrilling 3-2 victory at Carrow Road – the Canaries twice coming from behind to draw level.
Abraham opened the scoring early on with his first senior goal for Chelsea before Todd Cantwell levelled from close range.
Ben Godfrey almost rescued a point when he headed against the crossbar, with Farke ruing the defending for Abraham’s winner.
“We conceded early but I knew the lads would react to a setback,” said the Norwich boss. “I can trust my players. For me, a draw at half-time was a fair result. They had spells, we had spells.
“In the second half for the first 15 minutes they put a lot of pressure on us and were the better side. You have to expect this. Chelsea at this level will be able to dominate for a spell against Norwich.
“They score out of a counter when we are two against one. That was disappointing.”
