Nigerian stars play in Chelsea's pre-season loss

Although they have been trailed with exit rumours, Mikel Obi and Moses have been part of Chelsea pre-season activities.

The Nigeria internationals made the starting Xi  on Saturday, July 16 as Chelsea fell 2-0 to Rapid Vienna.

Mikel Obi played 90 minutes while Moses was substituted in the second half.

Moses was very impressive for Chelsea as he provided width from the left wing.

His performances however were not enough as Chelsea conceded goals from teenage Brazilian Joelinton calmly (eighth minute) and Tomi Correa in the second half.

Chelsea are in Austria for a week. They headed to Velde on Sunday where Conte will be hoping for a better performance when they play AC Wolfsberger on Wednesday, July 20.
