Rob Green's penalty save and newly-installed captain Eden Hazard's converted spot kick secured victory for Chelsea over Lyon in their final pre-season friendly.
Maurizio Sarri handed out minutes to his entire squad on a wet night in west London.
With Thibaut Courtois set to leave and Kepa Arrizabalaga incoming in a world record £71m move, the Blues remain active ahead of Thursday's deadline.
Youngsters Tammy Abraham, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Ethan Ampadu were handed starts, with the latter impressing most at the back.

Jorginho and N'Golo Kante shared their first minutes on the pitch together in what promises to be a stellar midfield partnership.
Then Hazard, returning after a post-World Cup vacation and Real Madrid speculation, stepped back on to the pitch - but this time with the captain's armband, despite Gary Cahill and Cesar Azpilicueta also present.

The Belgian's quiet nature amidst the speculation has been well received in contrast to Courtois refusing to return from his holiday in order to force through a move to Real Madrid.
All attention is now on Huddersfield for Sarri, but Green save from Pape Cheikh Diop and Hazard slotting past Anthony Lopes provided a boost heading into the new era at the Bridge.
