| Diego Costa scores the stunning third goal |
Mourinho axed six of his regular starters and they responded by dispatching of a vastly inferior Israeli outfit.
Even Eden Hazard's ballooned penalty miss in the sixth minute did little to dampen the mood as Diego Costa capped an encouraging evening at Stamford Bridge with a sublime volleyed third goal.
They went in front in slightly fortuitous circumstances as Willian's free-kick evaded everyone and nestled into the corner after a quarter of an hour.
The Brazilian was brought off with a knock shortly afterwards and replaced by Costa.

| Eden Hazard ballooned a penalty over the bar after six minutes |
Despite his omission from the starting line-up, the Spain international won a penalty which Oscar converted to double the lead just before the half-time interval.
And Mourinho might think twice about leaving him out for Saturday's visit of Arsenal as he dispatched a Cesc Fabregas cross with a side-footed volley that oozed class.
Fabregas sealed the win with 12 minutes left on the clock.
