London: Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham grabbed a hat-trick in a 3-1 win over second-tier Luton Town on Sunday to book the Premier League side's place in the FA Cup fifth round.

Frank Lampard's side will play another Championship club in the next round when they make the trip to Barnsley, who beat Norwich City 1-0 on Saturday.

Abraham's treble was his second in a Chelsea shirt and the 23-year-old became the first Englishman since Lampard in 2007 to net one for the club in the competition.

"It's great to score a hat-trick and win so comfortably. Lutonare a good side," England forward Abraham, who now has 11 goals this season, told the BBC.

"It's always nice to get a win, hopefully we can build off that form now... hopefully we can build on the confidence from here." Agencies
