Hazard says goodbye to Chelsea with Europa League title brace

KUWAIT, May 29 (KUNA) -- Chelsea were crowned Europa League champions in a 4-1 all-English trumph over Arsenal, with their star forward, Eden Hazard, claiming two goals as he bid farewell to seven seasons with the London club.
The Belgian international's brace came in the 65th and 72nd minutes, the second of which was a penalty spot kick, after Olivier Giroud, a former Arsenal player, and Pedro's efforts in the 49th and 60th minutes, respectively.
Arsenal attempted a comeback through Alex Iwobi with half an hour left until the final whistle.
But Hazard was once again the Blues' talisman, as he claimed the club's second Europa League cup after winning it back in 2012-13.
However, the Belgian told reporters following the match that he will be leaving the club with reports speculating he may be moving on to Spanish La Liga giants, Real Madrid. (end) sd
