WATCH: Eden Hazard one of the best in the world!
Updated | By Sky Tshabalala
Chelsea assistant manager Gianfranco Zola hailed Eden Hazard as one of the world's best after the Belgian's spectacular winner sent the Blues into the last 16 of the League Cup at Liverpool's expense with a 2-1 victory at Anfield.
Both sides made nine changes with one eye on the top of the table Premier League clash between the same two sides on Saturday.
But Maurizio Sarri's gamble on throwing on Hazard 10 minutes into the second half paid off as Emerson Palmieri levelled from his free-kick 11 minutes from time before the Belgian's wonderful solo effort won the tie.
"Not only is he one of the best in the Premier League -- if not the best -- but he is one of the best in Europe and the world," said Zola, himself a Chelsea legend as a player.
"In my opinion we haven't seen the best of him yet. He's remarkable."
