Chelsea’s winning run under Thomas Tuchel continued with a narrow victory over Barnsley to set up an FA Cup quarter-final with Sheffield United.
Championship side Barnsley were the better team in the first half with Kepa Arrizabalaga blocking Callum Brittain’s attempt at point-blank range.
Chelsea, who made 10 changes, got the breakthrough when Tammy Abraham tapped home after Reece James’ pass.
Abraham just held his run to ensure he was onside to finish from close range.
