NORWICH, England (AP) — Chelsea overcame the chaos of a turbulent day off the pitch to grind out a 3-1 win at Norwich and stay in the driving seat for Champions League qualification.

It meant Chelsea required a special licence to even play the midweek game, but goals by Trevoh Chalobah, Mason Mount and Kai Havertz still clinched all three points. Teemu Pukki’s 69th-minute penalty set up a nervy finale before Havertz’s late strike.
