Chelsea star Moises Caicedo has scored from near the halfway line during his side's final Premier League game of the season against Bournemouth.

The Blues can end the season in fifth place and secure Europa League qualification with a win, depending on the result of Tottenham's game.

One player you probably wouldn't have expected to score the goal to get them there is Caicedo, who had yet to find the back of the net in a Chelsea shirt before Sunday.

But the Ecuadorian marked his opening Blues goal in some style against Bournemouth.

The move started when Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto raced outside his area to prevent a Chelsea attack, but his first touch then put him under pressure and he needed to slide to stop Conor Gallagher from making the interception.

The ball went as far as Caicedo, who started in his own half but charged over the halfway line before letting fly.

His effort went straight over the head of Neto and Cherries defender Marcos Senesi before landing in the back of the net - with the goal surely worthy of a Puskas award nomination.

Check it out below.

Tottenham's opening goal at Sheffield United means Chelsea are on course to finish in sixth position - but will still secure Europa League football at the time of writing.

Regardless, a win at Stamford Bridge would represent signs of progress for manager Mauricio Pochettino and his side, who will record their fifth consecutive Premier League victory if they manage to see out the result.

The season is also set to end on a positive note for Caicedo, who joined Chelsea for a British record transfer fee of £110 million from Brighton in the summer and has begun to find form towards the end of the campaign after a mixed start to life at Stamford Bridge.
