CHARLIE Griffin took just two minutes to do what it took 1,024 minutes to do last season and score against Chelsea keeper Petr Cech.

The striker, who signed from Conference minnows Forest Green in the summer, came off the bench to head in a dream debut goal.

And, although first half goals for Damien Duff and Carlton Cole combined with Jiri Jarosik's second-half double and a goal for Arjen Robben gave Chelsea a comfortable win, Wanderers also had their chances as they gave the best side in Britain a decent workout.

But those five goals couldn't erase Griffin's smile.

He said: "You dream of these moments. Ever since I signed and realised we were playing Chelsea, I've been dreaming of this.

"It means everything to me to score past one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

"It is something to savour but I've got to move on now.

"There's a lot of good strikers at this club and real competition for places. I haven't come here just to sit around on the substitutes bench. I have come here to get in the team."

Griffin rose above the Chelsea defence to power home Clint Easton's cross to bring it back to 2-1 before Chelsea's multi-million pound squad moved through the gears to pull away again.

But Wanderers can be proud of their night's work. Cech, and Chelsea's first half keeper Carlo Cudicini, both had to pull off first class saves from Russell Martin and Nathan Tyson respectively as Blues put up a fantastic advert for the lower leagues.

Wanderers stayed on a level footing with last year's league and League Cup winners for half an hour and in that time they had three chances to take the lead.

Nathan Tyson's pace embarrassed Nuno Morais and his left foot shot drew a fine stop from Cudicini.

Tommy Mooney then saw his goalbound volley blocked by England defender Glen Johnson and then Tyson again was just a cigarette paper away from Kevin Betsy's low right wing cross as Wycombe traded chances with Chelsea.

But Chelsea, who began the night with John Terry and Frank Lampard parading the Premiership Trophy, showed just why they won it with two goals in two minutes.

Joe Burnell's sloppy pass was capitalised on by Carlton Cole and seconds later Damien Duff blasted Chelsea in front with drive which although Frank Talia got a hand to, he could not keep out.

And the Wycombe keeper, who made four stunning stops on the night to deny Gudjonsen, Jarosik, Lampard and Robben was picking the ball out of his net again almost immediately after.

Carlton Cole doubled the visitors' advantage when he headed Duff's corner against the bar but then followed up to slam the ball home.

But Wanderers continued to play with Danny Senda starring. On one run the right back mesmerised two defenders but then fired over the top.

Chelsea made wholesale changes at half time but, with the likes of Robben, Lampard, Gallas, Tiago and Paulo Ferreira all coming on, it only made Wycombe's job harder.

Joe Cole missed a simple tap-in after Carlton Cole had outfoxed Mike Williamson, Jarosik's 25-yard screamer was tipped over the bar and then Gallas headed over.

Griffin then entered the fray and made his mark but just as the home fans in the 10,000 capacity crowd dreamed of a famous comeback, Robben clinically snuffed it out inside a minute.

The outstanding Dutchman latched onto Tiago's defence-splitting pass to score the third goal with aplomb.

Robben was on a different planet setting up Jarosik's two goals in the 71st and 81st minute.
