Once more Romelu Lukaku's goal is his 12th one of the season that set Chelsea on the route to the FA Cup semi-finals in grand style, as the club's off-field issues were put aside.

Irrespective of the current set back of the Chelsea FC, the team have managed to keep their head high above all odds and delivered in every games and competitions they played in of recent.

It showed up with 15 minutes gone when Ziyech observed Mason Mount in space down the right and he sent the ball across goal, where defender Dael Fry mysteriously neglected to mediate, in the process giving Lukaku the least complex of undertakings from point-clear reach.

The speed and try of Isaiah Jones and Marcus Tavernier kept the Teessiders in the challenge, and with captain Jonny Howson snapping into handles in the field, Tuchel's side realized they were in a game.

Lukaku was prevented from getting his second goal of the game by the caution Anfernee Dijksteel subsequent to adjusting Lumley from Pulisic's diverted through-ball, yet the home side's objective looked pitiful as they walked off at the break.

Fry cleared a path for Sol Bamba to well known praise before the restart and Balogun could have improved in the wake of being set up by Matt Crooks after he had been selected by Jones five minutes into the final part.

Chris Wilder's side - who had taken out Manchester United and Tottenham in the two past rounds - battled manfully as time ran down with Jones and substitute Duncan Watmore adding new zing.

In any case, they missed the mark on the forefront to inconvenience a guard marshaled expertly by 37-year-old Silva enough to drag themselves back into the game.

Timo Werner could have added a third goal, however for a square by Bamba and fellow substitute Josh Coburn constrained a late save from Mendy at the opposite end, yet the task was finished.

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said he trusted the interaction to observe another owner for the Premier League club would be finished "at the earliest opportunity".

Talking after his side's success at Middlesbrough, Tuchel obtained some information about the off-field unrest following Russian owner Roman Abramovich's choice to put the club available to be purchased.

"I trust that the cycle will go through quickly to clear the circumstance and to quiet the circumstance down and give everyone a standpoint to the closer future," he said.

"So we know with whom we are managing and what the circumstance is we are managing. This is the thing we are expecting. We trust things will be pushed as quickly as could really be expected and we can see ourselves in a more quiet circumstance."
