Chelsea seals 2-1 win over Barca in Japan friendly
Print Edition
Goals from Tammy Abraham and Ross Barkley saw Chelsea grab a 2-1 victory against Barcelona yesterday in an exhibition match in Japan.
Chelsea striker Abraham opened the scoring in the 34th minute by pouncing on a mistake by Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets who attempted to clear the ball. Chelsea made it 2-0 with less than 10 minutes left as midfielder Barkley picked up a cross in front of the box and curled it into the net, with substitute ‘keeper Neto getting a touch it but unable to block it. Just before injury time, Barcelona got a free kick just outside the box but midfielder Ivan Rakitic’s shot went above the bar. Rakitic, however, quickly redeemed himself in injury time, picking up a cross and firing a lightning right footer that went deep into the net for a consolation goal for Barcelona.
