Earlier today, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte got his first taste of the FA Cup…
The Italian has been impressive in the Premier League, leading the Blues to the top of the table, but domestic cup competitions are always full of surprises.
This round of fixtures had already thrown up its fair share of shocks, most notably with Bournemouth falling to Millwall on Saturday, and Antonio Conte would surely have been concerned that a similar fate would await his team.
As Conte so often has this season, though, he masterfully led his team to yet another win – with the Blues leaving Stamford Bridge on Sunday evening as 4-1 winners.
Goals from Batshuayi, Willian and a double from Pedro were enough to seal the points, though the game was not without controversy. Chelsea captain John Terry was sent off, fairly, as the captain’s fall continued.
Nonetheless, the result is what was important, and Chelsea secured progression fairly easily – and unsurprisingly, the Chelsea fans on Twitter were pretty pleased.
With that said, here are 6 of the best Chelsea fan reactions to Chelsea’s 4-1 demolition of Peterborough in the FA Cup…
Brilliant performance by Chelsea. #CFC

It was only for 13 minutes, but Aina, Loftus-Cheek and Chalobah all shared the pitch for #CFC today. Another positive step forward.
