Aston Villa 0 : 2 Chelsea

TOR BLIMEY ... Didier Drogba congratulates team-mate Fernando Torres for making it 2-0

FERNANDO TORRES was all smiles as Chelsea lifted the Barclays Asia Trophy.

Torres climbed off the bench in the second half before netting his side's second goal with his first touch.

And the Spaniard's smart finish, combined with Josh McEachran's opener, ensured the Blues ended their pre-season tour in the best possible fashion at the Hong Kong Stadium.

Delighted Blues boss Andre Villas-Boas said: "Commitment-wise, motivation-wise and the professionalism of these players on this tour is something I have not seen before.

"It's not easy to come away from your home in these difficult conditions, always finding motivation to train, always finding motivation to play and this a good positive sign for us.

"To create opportunities is one of our main objectives this season.

"We want a lot more attacking football, a lot more possession and we were able to do it today, even coping with Aston Villa's aggressiveness in their game.
