Victor Moses was in maverick form last night where Chelsea put six past Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Capital One Cup. The Capital One cup was renamed this season after capital one bought the rights and sponsorship deal for the competition. This competition was previously known as Coca-cola, Worthington and Carling cup in the past. Chelsea handed debuts to Cesar Azicipuleta, Marko Marin and Victor Moses and also rested Petr Cech, John Obi Mikel and Ashley Cole for the tie. Ross Turnbull, Oriol Romeu and Ryan Betrand all debuted for the rested trio. Chelsea started bright and went ahead in the fourth minute through Gary Cahill, Ryan Betrand added a second before Juan Mata scored the third before halftime. Victor Moses got a penalty early in the second half after he was adjudged to have been brought down in the area but replays showed he dived. Oriol Romeu scored the resulting penalty. Fernando Torres got at the end of a Juan Mata’s corner to make it five before Victor Moses rounded off the scoring with his debut goal.   OTHER NOTABLE MENTIONS Ex-Everton trainee, Hope Akpan scored the second goal for Crawley Town in the 3-2 home loss to Swansea City last night. Nigerian born English striker, Gabriel Agbonlahor was on target twice for his club side, Aston Villa who pulled out the shock of the night winning 4-2 away to Manchester City at the Etihad stadium.
