There was nothing riding on this game for either side with Sunderland already relegated and Chelsea already crowned champions, but it was an emotional farewell for John Terry and the opportunity for Chelsea to secure a record breaking 30th victory of the season.

When Javier Manquillo rifled home a powerful shot in the third minute for Sunderland, it seemed that he could have been set to spoil the party, but Chelsea’s quality ensured that that wasn’t the case.

It took just five minutes for Willian to equalise as he pounced after Marcos Alonso’s effort cannoned off the crossbar, and Diego Costa then set up Eden Hazard to take the lead early in the second half with Pedro adding a third after his introduction later in the half.

There was even time for substitute Michy Batshuayi to add a brace in injury time and take his tally of Premier League goals for the season to five, having scored more in his last three games than in his first 16.

See how Antonio Conte’s men rated in their final game of the Premier League season:

Thibaut Courtois – 7

Busier than he may have expected pre-match, he made a good save in the second half and looked comfortable throughout, even if he may not have been thoroughly tested by Sunderland’s poor finishing.
