Video Highlights: Middlesborough 1-0 Chelsea - All Match (Watch)

Middlesbrough made Chelsea – and Cole Palmer in particular – rue their missed chances as Hayden Hackney’s goal handed the Championship side a 1-0 first-leg lead in their Carabao Cup semi-final.

The England international, who had earlier been denied by Boro keeper Tom Glover, passed up three opportunities either side of Hackney’s 37th-minute strike, which ensured Michael Carrick’s men will head for Stamford Bridge in a fortnight’s time with a 1-0 lead.
