Goals from Frank Lampard and second half strikes from Jose Bosingwa, Branislav Ivanovic and Florent Malouda sealed a comfortable victory for the Stamford Bridge outfit.<\/p>\n

The first half kicked off in sweltering conditions in Thailand\u2019s capital, and Chelsea dominated the early exchanges. In the opening ten minutes, John Obi Mikel went close from a testing cross, while Bosingwa had a shot well saved by Thai keeper, Pattarakorn Tanganurat.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the other end, fit-again Petr Cech did well on the rare occasions he was tested, but the visitors soon began to dominate possession and the chances.<\/p>\n

Their dominance saw Nicolas Anelka unleash two efforts on goal, both of which were subsequently blocked by the All-Stars. Moments later, the heavily marked Fernando Torres went down under a strong challenge in the penalty area, but the referee waved away Chelsea’s penalty protests.<\/p>\n

In the 24th minute, captain John Terry had a goal ruled out for offside as Villas-Boas men appeared to go up another gear, and it would only take another 13 minutes for them to find their breakthrough, with Lampard<\/strong> firing home from the edge of the area.<\/p>\n

Having made eleven changes against Malaysia XI at the interval, Villas-Boas was content with just one in Bangkok, with Cech being replaced by Hilario, as a tepid performance from Fernando Torres was prolonged into the second 45.<\/p>\n

And it wasn’t long before the Stamford Bridge side accelerated into a three-goal lead, with a quickfire double within seven minutes of the restart.<\/p>\n

Bosingwa<\/strong>, having been denied in the first half, saw his luck change as his 30-yard effort was diverted off the post after a lapse in concentration from the All-Stars’ keeper. With the 52nd came Chelsea’s third, as a deft exchange of passing between Josh McEachran and Ivanovic<\/strong> saw the Serbian apply the finish.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Hilario was called into action soon after, as the Portuguese shot stopper showed no signs of pre-season rustiness to deny Chaiman a consolation.<\/p>\n

And that flourish from the hosts seemed to spark Chelsea into life. First, Villas-Boas made sweeping changes to refresh the side, with goalscorer Ivanovic one of several players making way, before Chelsea added their fourth.<\/p>\n

Mikel, impressing in the middle of the park, found substitute Malouda<\/strong>‘s darting run with his crosshairs, and the Nigerian’s inch-perfect pass allowed the winger to rifle home on 72 minutes.<\/p>\n

And Chelsea went close to adding a fifth, when Drogba latched onto a Paulo Ferreira free kick, but was unable to keep his header down, as it drifted over the crossbar.<\/p>\n

Starting XI<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chelsea XI:<\/strong>\u00a0 Cech; Bosingwa, Ivanovic, Terry, Van Aanholt; McEachran, Mikel, Lampard; Anelka, Torres, Sturridge.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thailand All-Stars XI:<\/strong> Tanganurat; Iamwiroj, Dos Santos, Florent, Prakopkong; Siaka, Chaiman, Khonchan; Acheampong, Onmo, Kumbe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
