Torres scores in Chelsea friendly win
Fernando Torres helped Andre Villas-Boas to a winning start to his Chelsea reign with a goal in a close-door friendly win against Wycombe Wanderers.
The £50million signing from Liverpool has netted just once for the Blues since his arrival in January.But he doubled his tally - though unofficially - with a well taken goal to double his side's lead early in the second-half.
Returning midfielder Yossi Benayoun opened the scoring after just four minutes with a delightful chip over the Wycombe goalkeeper.
Defender Slobodan Rajkovic, returning from a season-long loan at Dutch team Vitesse Arnhem, volleyed a Yuri Zhirkov corner to wrap up proceedings with a third goal.
The match was Villas-Boas' first look at his Chelsea squad in action since being appointed the new manager at Stamford Bridge.
And he would be pleased with his side's winning start to their pre-season training - even more so with Torres getting on the scoresheet.
