Gonzalo Higuain opened the scoring for Chelsea and scored a fine second goal as they hammered Chelsea
Gonzalo Higuain scored his first goals in English football to help Chelsea beat Huddersfield while Tottenham moved second in the Premier League table with a late victory over Newcastle.
Higuain's instinctive early finish and a fine effort from range in the second period were complemented by two Eden Hazard goals and a David Luiz strike as Maurizio Sarri's side moved fourth with a 5-0 victory over the Terriers.
Son Heung-min profited from an error by Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka to score the only goal of the game - his ninth goal in 10 Spurs matches - with seven minutes to spare at Wembley.
