Chelsea cruise to title win

9th May 2010

Chelsea clinched the Barclays Premier League title in style as Didier Drogba struck a second-half hat-trick in their 8-0 thrashing of 10-man Wigan.

The Blues went ahead in the sixth minute when Nicolas Anelka finished after Florent Malouda showed good strength in the area, and they were all but home and hosed after 32 minutes when Gary Caldwell hauled down Frank Lampard in the area.

The Wigan man saw red and Lampard converted from the spot to make it 2-0.

The second half was effectively a lap of honour for Chelsea as Salomon Kalou scored nine minutes after the restart, Anelka grabbed his second two minutes later, then Didier Drogba struck three times, including a penalty after Mario Melchiot fouled Ashley Cole.

It was the fourth time this season they had scored seven in a Premier League game, and defender Cole got on the scoresheet himself in the dying seconds to make it eight.
