With the tie level at 1-1 after the first leg in Manchester, Chelsea made the flawless start on home soil, going ahead after just six minutes courtesy of Chalobah's thumping header from Mason Mount's right-wing corner.
Full-time: Chelsea 5-1 Man City (6-2 agg).
ANTONIO CONTE ignored Tottenham's bid to put pressure on Chelsea in the title race as he chose to watch his youngsters win the FA Youth Cup instead.
Chelsea then made their breakthrough, Chalobah rising highest to meet a pinpoint Mason Mount corner and power a header past Muric from 12 yards.
City couldn't live with Chelsea's pace and skill levels, and the London club doubled their lead on the night on 23 minutes when Ugbo spectacularly volleyed Dujon Sterling's cross into the far corner.

It's tough to pick out which of Chelsea's handful of goals was the best, but perhaps the one from the ridiculously exciting 16-year-old Hudson-Odoi takes the cake.
After a dominant first half, which ended 2-0, City came out firing in the second and grabbed a goal through the competion's leading goal-scorer, Lukas Nmecha, but Chelsea held on, regrouped, and put the game to bed.
It wasn't until a minute before the break that City created a presentable opportunity of their own.
City's composure on the ball improved throughout the first period but they struggled to force their way through a compact Chelsea defence until Nmecha's curling effort on the stroke of the whistle brought some confidence for the second period.
Chalobah pushed out of defence and clipped the ball into the feet of Hudson-Odoi, who drove diagonally at the City defence from left to right before lashing a shot into the top corner off the post.
