New Chelsea boss Antonio Conte finally tasted his first win with a 3-0 resounding victory in a pre-season encounter against Austrian side RZ Pellets WAC.

Burkina Faso midfielder Bertrand Traore got the first goal of the evening for Chelsea when he was at the end of a superb Willian cross four minutes before half-time.

Second-half goals from Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Nathaniel Chalobah sealed the win for Conte’s men.

The victory would come as a boost for Chelsea who lost their first pre-season friendly 2-0 to Rapid Vienna, on Saturday.

Chelsea will face rivals Liverpool next in a International Champions Cup game next Thursday in the United States.
