In a pre-season finale against AC Milan 4-1, Chelsea fans found their answer to the new season. New player Joao Pedro, who is worth 63 million euros, shines with Liam Drapp, who scores twice on the bench, announcing the birth of a new generation of forward teams in the Blues.

catalyst Joao Pedro

If there is a turning point in this game, it is undoubtedly Pedro's dominant performance in the first 18 minutes.

8th minute: He showed the killer instinct in the penalty area and used a header to expand the score for the team.

The 18th minute: He used a powerful acceleration breakthrough to directly "destroy" Milan's defense line, forcing the opponent's defender to receive a red card.

Goal + creating a red card, the Brazilian striker became the catalyst for tearing the game in the most direct way.

Terminator Liam Delapp

If Pedro opened the door for victory, then Delapp, who came on the bench, ended the game in the most convincing way.

He scored twice in the second half, including a powerful penalty kick and a turning and a powerful shot that showed the strength of a modern center. These two goals were also his first goal at Stamford Bridge.

The perfect partner

Their shine is not an isolated solo performance, but a complementary chemistry. Pedro is responsible for wandering, connecting and creating on the periphery. And Drapp is the pure killer in the penalty area. After the game, Pedro also expressed his delight in his teammates' second score and showed positive team spirit.

A refreshing victory, a pair of forward partners with a promising future. Maresca's team is not only physically but also tactical, making the most complete preparations for the upcoming and ambitious new season.
