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:

Chelsea 1 - 1 Villarreal

117 mins: Villarreal win a free kick that Raba swings into the box. Gerard Moreno meets it with a strong header and forces Mendy into a leaping save to his right. The offside flag goes up though so it wouldn’t have counted.

114 mins: Azpilicueta puts a tantilising ball into the six yard box for Havertz but his tired body can’t get him to the ball in time. Chelsea look very leggy now.

This one has penalties written all over it. Still no sign of Tammy Abraham.

ET second half kick off: Unai Emery has used all his substitutions, Thomas Tuchel still has a one his sleeve. Ben Chilwell and Tammy Abraham have been warming up.

Chelsea restart the match, are we going to get a winning goal or a penalty shootout? That is the question.
