Zappacosta hits a ball boy
Many Chelsea fans might have thought they would never see Davide Zappacosta in a Chelsea shirt again, so it was something of surprise when Andreas Christensen had to come off injured and Sarri went for the Italian.
The head coach had Gary Cahill on the bench but he decided to go for the right-back instead, and he had a decent game when he came on.
A couple of rasping shots and then a vital clearance off the line helped the Blues to the Europa League final over Eintracht Frankfurt.
But before the game, one ball boy got an unlucky hit as Zappacosta took a long range shot, with one youngster taking it in the chest. Thankfully he was okay!

Frankfurt fans rip up the netting
Eintracht Frankfurt fans were full of voice throughout the game once again just like they were in the first leg, while the Chelsea fans also did well to match the noise made.
However, some Frankfurt supporters weren't overly impressed with the front few rows of the top tier being taken up by netting, so they took it into their own hands to do something about it.
They ripped up the netting so that they could move forward and cheer on their supporters from a bit closer to the action.
Luiz on the wing
Apart from a lapse moment in the defence, David Luiz had one of his better games last night, including an excellent clearance off the line.
But there was one time in the first half that really stood out from the Brazilian and that was when he found himself hurtling down the left wing.
Luiz is not afraid to move forward, usually bringing the ball out from the back, but this time he looked like a real replacement for Eden Hazard.
He hurtled down the flank, actually beat his man and then put in a dangerous cross that was cleared away.
If Hazard does move, then I think Chelsea have found their man!
