Chelsea 5 Sunderland 1: Antonio Conte’s champions finish the Premier League season in style

Antonio Conte's side became the first English club to secure 30 top-flight victories in a 38-game season after beating already-relegated Sunderland in west London,

beating their own record set by Jose Mourinho's champions in the 2004/05 and 2005/06 campaigns.

The win was also a fitting way for Terry to sign off his 22 years at Chelsea, with the defender being given an emotional send off during and after the match as he lifted the Premier League title with the club one last time.

Sunderland had given the champions a scare early on when Javier Manquillo scored in only the third minute but Willian's superb low effort five minutes later restored parity.

Eden Hazard then handed the Blues the lead with his fine effort just after the hour mark before substitute Pedro rounded off the win with his 77th-minute header to help Chelsea break a new league record ahead of their FA Cup final clash with Arsenal on Saturday.

The last two times Chelsea hosted Sunderland at Stamford Bridge saw the Blues secure 3-1 victories - with one of them coming on the final day of the season in 2015 when Mourinho's side had already been crowned champions.
