Christian Pulisic and Cesar Azpilicueta, who both limped off during Chelsea’s FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal, have handed Frank Lampard a double injury blow ahead of his side’s return to Champions League action against Bayern Munich.

Both players appeared to pull their hamstrings in either half of the 2-1 defeat at Wembley. Azpilicueta hobbled off 10 minutes before half-time, shortly after conceding the penalty which saw Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang make it 1-1.

Pulisic had opened the scoring for Chelsea in just the fifth minute of the match, but he too left the field clutching his hamstring just after the restart. A late shoulder injury to Pedro in his final game for Chelsea before he joins Serie A club Roma was the final act of the game, as hopes of a late equaliser diminished.

Both Pulisic and Azpilicueta could now be in doubt for the second leg of Chelsea’s Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich next Saturday – which the Blues trail 3-0 on aggregate.

An Aubameyang brace saw Arsenal clinch a record 14th FA Cup victory and ensured the Gunners victory in all three of their finals with Chelsea.
