Quietly rising up: Chelsea’s man of the match vs ES Tunis also wore the captains armband | OneFootball

Chelsea’s Man of the Match against ES Tunis also wore the captains armband last night and he is quietly rising up as a key player.

Chelsea beat ES Tunis 3-0 over night in the Club World Cup in America after Blues head coach Enzo Maresca named a rotated starting Xl to rest a few players.

EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea make further checks on Portuguese international centre back!

Chelsea needed to avoid a defeat to progress to the knockout rounds of the competition, and they did that with ease in the end against an opposition that they were just much better than in terms of quality.

Marc Cucurella got a deserved rest in the game, with Josh Acheampong starting at left back instead, but before the game, the Spanish international was expecting another tough game. But it was far from that for Chelsea in the end.

Delap’s goal was a strikers goal

Liam Delap got his first Chelsea goal and how he took it was a fine strikers goal. Delap collected the ball, was strong to muscle the defender off, skipped it inside and curled a lovely little controlled shot into the corner of the goal.

Tosin was MOTM

Centre back Tosin Adarabioyo was named as the Man of the Match in the win overnight and he was also spotted wearing the captains armband during a part of the game.

I think he is quietly going about his business but seriously stepping up in this squad as a key player and also a leader and one with decent experience.

Tosin has often been called one of the leaders of the group and seems to be a good influence on the younger players, it’s great to see him thriving at the moment.
