Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho was full of praise for Oscar after his match-winning free-kick in Sunday's 1-0 FA Cup win over Stoke City.
The Brazilian midfielder scored with an expertly-taken set-piece in the 27th minute of the fourth round clash at Stamford Bridge and his efforts were warmly received by his manager.
"The free-kick obviously made us happy," Mourinho said on his 51st birthday.
"It's always good when you see a player that, after the normal training session, dedicates some minutes every day to train a specific thing. To score a beautiful goal was good.
"It's a bit of a contradiction because we played so well and you win with a free-kick. When you play so well you win by scoring some amazing goals in free play."
