Estêvão ends drought, stars in Chelsea’s FA Cup rout | OneFootball

Chelsea thrashed Port Vale, bottom of England’s third division, 7-0 this Saturday at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup quarterfinals. Playing at home, the Blues were inspired by their Brazilian players, with Estêvão standing out.

The 18-year-old forward scored once and also provided an assist, ending a goal drought of nearly two months. Estêvão had not found the net since February 13, when he scored one of the goals in the 4-0 rout of Hull City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Since then, Estêvão had played only once before this Saturday’s match. The former Palmeiras player had been sidelined with a thigh muscle injury, which also kept him out of Brazil’s squad during the last international break.

João Pedro and Andrey Santos, who were called up by Carlo Ancelotti for the friendlies against France and Croatia, also scored for Chelsea this afternoon.

Now, Chelsea await the draw to find out who their opponent will be in the FA Cup semifinals.
