Michy Batshuayi and Marco van Ginkel scored late goals as a strong Chelsea side came from 2-1 down to beat Southampton 3-2 in Premier League 2 Division 1.
Club captain John Terry played 70 minutes and goalkeeper Eduardo, Kurt Zouma and Cesc Fabregas also started, but Olufela Olomola and Josh Sims gave Southampton a 2-1 lead at half-time, either side of a fine strike from Batshuayi.
