Kepa Arrizabalaga came off the bench to save two penalties and earn Chelsea Super League success in a shoot-out victory over Villarreal.

Thomas Tuchel made the call to replace Edouard Mendy in the closing stages of the 1-1 draw - with Kepa then providing the heroics.

Kai Havertz missed the first spot-kick but after that Chelsea were perfect while both Aissa Mandi and Raul Albiol both saw their penalties saved as Chelsea won the shoot-out 6-5.

Hakim Ziyech shone from the start and opened the scoring only to injure his shoulder before half-time to give Thomas Tuchel a worry ahead of the Premier League opener against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Relive all the action live below:

Christian Pulisic is up next. He smokes it into the back of the net. Advantage Chelsea.

Raba has to score... and he does. We’re going to sudden death.

Jorginho takes Chelsea’s fifth penalty. He sends Asenjo to the left and rolls it down the middle.

Moi Gomez scores too even though Kepa dove the right way. Four penalties each taken now, both teams have missed once.

As cool as you like from Pervis Estupinan. He waits for Kepa to goe left then slots it to the keeper’s right.

Lovely. Cesar Azpilicueta fires it right into the corner. Asenjo dives the right way but can’t reach the shot. All square.

Gerard Moreno scored Villarreal’s equaliser and he scores their first penalty! In off the post.
