00:00Obvious reasons but the opposition really it's going to be so tough
00:05They like it to be here to be even sat at this stage
00:08Couple of changes one of the course for the game where they didn't particularly impress
00:11They did take the lead through Pedro Neto just like they did in Atlanta against LA have seen their first group game tonight
00:18And it's cool heads as the heat beats down
00:24It's always sunny in Philadelphia, just not always a hundred degrees Fahrenheit
00:29It's the hottest day in Philly for 31 years
00:32We can take the heat as a round of 16 tie with Benfica awaits the winner of this one
00:37Can Chelsea tame the team they call the Beast of Africa the Beast of North Yorkshire is alongside me today Michael Brown
00:44Thanks for that introduction, but now Chelsea as expected moving the ball
00:50circulating looking for control
00:53Esperanza not going to move they're going to press where possible certain points and maybe the goalkeepers got it when they could be higher
00:59This is going to be a familiar
01:01Start to the game. Just probe
01:03Move it come off the line and just see
01:06I can find a breakthrough. I think the tempo the energy levels of passing
01:11So speed is going to be important
01:14Already it's not exactly one-two touch football. This is a confident bit of play early doors showing by a young Josh action pong
01:21And that's what they need a little bit of in this Chelsea 11 someone to put the foot down and take authority because they didn't really have anyone who did that
01:29Dewsbury Hall with the corner for Chelsea and as the short options go into the box
01:33It's a looping one. There's a header there towards the back post and I'll tell you what the lap might have got on the end of that
01:39Got his head on it. And I think the tight marking mean he did just enough
01:44Is the end of life is on his own against for Esperanza midfielders come defenders
01:50That's a free kick
01:52Stunt Chelsea a little bit in terms of their attacking width
01:55I don't think so because you try to create a one-by-one so you take them one of the players away
02:00Gusto goes inside and that passing lane that Fernandez has just dropped. He can get turned to good area
02:05Maduweke can drop down off the line also
02:08That's where you're just pulling him a little bit and then it's the next pass in between
02:12Full back and center back. That's what you're looking for those little gaps as areas for one of your 10s to get in
02:17Here's Maduweke
02:19Mkunku. It's very tight. Here's Liam DeLapp. Can he find space? Yes, he can. He gets a shot away
02:25First attempt on target of the game
02:2814 minutes played Ben Saeed
02:30Great power, you know once you push it into a position. You know he's still got range. He has the confidence. It wasn't a bad outcome
02:38That's not a good header at all as the volley comes in from range. Well, it's just kind of sat up nicely on the edge of the penalty area
02:45going to a back five wherever possible
02:47communicating
02:50Maduweke is in behind here brings it
02:52Down on the edge of the penalty area. Not the best of clearances. But Yashile will get a shot away and that will ricochet
02:58off Anouche Agbelu
03:01Take that on from that distance. Yeah, I don't think many did. It looked ambitious
03:06It is something different
03:10It's taking shorts
03:12Achampong trying to get a shot away. He does and there's DeLapp on the rebound, but it can't finish
03:19Brilliant defending
03:21And Saeed he doesn't expect that to come through the crowd. I don't think after Achampong took the shot to that miles offside, but
03:28How about that for defending my Esperance to recover last minute?
03:33It was good, wasn't it?
03:35It was good, wasn't it?
03:37Just a touch
03:38And now the counters on
03:40Fernandes
03:41Maduweke
03:42fancies it
03:44Still has it
03:46Noni Maduweke
03:47Into space
03:48Prento Fernandes on the volley
03:50Good hits
03:52But always going wide
03:54Yeah, really well
03:55I believe thinking
03:56Please
03:57Can I get the ball back when you use the midfielder and you give the ball in the middle and park away?
04:01You've got to recover. You've got to run back
04:03Holds off Anouche Agbelu
04:05Rarely loses the ball as Romeo Lavia
04:10Joshi with a free kick
04:11Josh Achampong
04:12Been very impressed in this first half
04:14By young Josh Achampong
04:17He's progressed and he's progressed more than any other
04:19Defender for Chelsea in this first half and he's rewarded as a free kick
04:24You must look as a youngster and you go, right, we've got Augusto, we've got Rhys James
04:29How can I get minutes at time?
04:31So, we really want to show himself, to get a good feel
04:36You've just got to take these opportunities as a young player
04:40Have the confidence, take a little bit of a chance
04:43Join in, go forward
04:45That's the type of run there
04:48When Mureska came in at the start of last season
04:52He didn't think he knew who he was and he introduced himself to the manager as
04:55Hi, I'm Josh
04:56He had no idea
04:58That he
05:00That Mureska knew who he was
05:03Certainly did
05:05Free kick for Chelsea
05:10Enzo Fernandes to take
05:11It's too far out to shoot
05:13So he floats it into the back post
05:14There's a header by Tosin!
05:18Free header
05:19For the big Chelsea centre back
05:22And in the third minute of injury time
05:24Tosin Adorabayo rises highest
05:28To give Chelsea the lead here in Philadelphia
05:31They've had plenty of set pieces
05:33None they've taken and now they have
05:35Well they've worked it
05:38They've had chances to put good deliveries
05:42The manager
05:44Was not pleased
05:46And
05:47Not happy with certain things in the decision
05:49When we get a look
05:51Tosin just goes to go back into the shape
05:53And then
05:54Drifts
05:55The timing's good
05:56Rises
05:57It's a comfortable header
05:59Back
06:00From where it's coming from
06:01Down into the ground
06:02You taught that as a youngster
06:04He's got his eyes on it
06:05Watches it all the way
06:07Goalkeeper no chance
06:08He just
06:09Drifts into the flag
06:10Esperance defenders running into each other
06:12Two guy
06:13Tries to recover
06:14It's a big tackle
06:15Got the ball
06:18De Lapp
06:19Great strength by Liam De Lapp
06:20Great footwork
06:21Great finish Liam De Lapp
06:27The new boy's arrived at Chelsea
06:34Well he's hardly seen a change in the weather
06:36And here he is
06:37The young forward scoring at the Club World Cup
06:42For Chelsea
06:43And it's two goals in injury time
06:45Which means Chelsea
06:46Lead 2-0 against Esperance here in Group D
06:50That's a great moment
06:52For De Lapp
06:53Great quality finish
06:54The one before
06:55Just as it comes forward
06:56He glances his header inside
06:58It was really good
06:59It keeps it alive
07:00But he doesn't stop
07:01He waits
07:02He waits
07:03And then the ball
07:05Dewsbury hole
07:06So he's the running behind of De Lapp
07:10Dewsbury hole
07:11Will get it back
07:12Kiernan Dewsbury hole
07:13Enzo Fernandes
07:16He could see the spot he was aiming for
07:18Might have changed his mind here
07:19The referee
07:20He has
07:24Let's see if he was right
07:25Not sure if there was a touch
07:28Maybe it's
07:29Yeah, Renzo Fernandes
07:30Steps up to take this corner kick
07:36Fernandes with the corner
07:37Towards the near post
07:39Dealt with
07:40Gusto
07:41Clears his lines
07:44Space out on the left hand side here for Chelsea
07:46Marueke
07:47Cuts it back
07:48Christopher Nkunku on the left foot
07:49Strikes the back stanchion
07:52Plenty of power in it
07:53From Christopher Nkunku
07:57Build up
07:58Good play
07:59As the ball cuts back
08:00Touches good
08:02It's got to do much better
08:03It's wild
08:04The pass
08:05The weight of it
08:06It's got to be better in the path
08:09Tyreek George
08:11Turns on the tricky feet
08:12Lays it back
08:13As the shot comes in
08:14And deflects wide
08:17In fact it's not a corner
08:18It's a penalty
08:20Andre Santos with the strike
08:22And the strike
08:23Hit the hand
08:24Of an Esperanza defender
08:27And that is you see
08:29Ongoing
08:31The referee's been told
08:32Let's come and have a look
08:33At the monitor
08:36Big moment for Yael
08:38Falcón Perez
08:40He was pretty adamant
08:41In his decision initially
08:45Really be as adamant
08:46After a
08:47Check of the monitor
08:48Down below us
08:49A couple of Esperanza supporters
08:50Over his right shoulder
08:51Might have something to say about it
08:55It's a good
08:56What?
08:5710 yards away
08:58From the strike
09:00It does hit his hand
09:01And it
09:02Swings it around his back
09:03So obviously hits his hands
09:04But you see the line of sight
09:05For the defender
09:06If you look as he plays the ball
09:08The line of sight
09:09You know
09:10Does he get to see it?
09:12Let's have a little look now
09:13His hands behind his back
09:15He's not out from the side too much
09:18And that's why they have an extra look
09:20Well let's have a look
09:21Well let's have a listen
09:30After off-field review
09:31There is not a punishable
09:33At least in natural position
09:34The final
09:35Let's see a drop ball
09:36For the goalkeeper
09:37Well it's a drop ball
09:39Well it's a drop ball for the goalkeeper
09:40No penalty
09:41For Chelsea
09:42Yes
09:43Just for honest to say
09:44Can we play seven more minutes?
09:46Here's Achenpong
09:48He's on the floor
09:50And Ogbalu is in the book
09:52Great tackle
09:53On the young defender
09:55Who has impressed me
09:56For Chelsea this evening
09:57I've got to say
10:00He's looked in his stride there
10:02There isn't
10:03A great deal
10:04It's a slide across
10:06As the referee's angle
10:07Do we change it?
10:08Do we see anything?
10:09He'll just see is that sweep
10:11Cleaning out
10:12Your opponent
10:13As he's getting into
10:14An advanced area of the pitch
10:18Well the Nigeria
10:20National team coaches
10:21Were very impressed by his performance
10:22Against LA
10:23And you see
10:24Iannucci Ogbalu
10:26Certainly one to watch
10:28Next season
10:31And for
10:32Upcoming World Cup qualifiers as well
10:35Incidentally there has been goals
10:37In the
10:38Game between LAFC and Flamengo
10:41And LAFC took the lead through
10:43Dennis Buonga
10:45Only a couple of minutes later
10:46The Brazilian side equalised
10:47Through the man who scored
10:48The third goal
10:49Against Chelsea
10:50Wallace-Yan
10:51Not the most Brazilian of names
10:54Not a Scottish element
10:55To
10:56A young Brazilian
10:59But Enzo
11:00Looks like he's getting his results
11:01And getting his progression
11:02To the next round
11:03And
11:06You look at the day
11:08Wanting to make changes
11:10Were they under a little bit of pressure
11:12Yeah
11:13Won the group
11:15Then they were looking like
11:16They were going to be facing
11:18Bayern Munich
11:19That changes for them
11:20All of a sudden the tournament forecast
11:21The tournament forecast
11:22And all the things
11:23That always go what you think
11:24But
11:26It looks so so much better than it did
11:28When we were here watching the last one
11:29As they all get a
11:31Nice cooling
11:32Seem rather happy with that
11:35Pedronato
11:36Not so sad to be a substitute
11:37All of a sudden
11:38Is that the hottest seat
11:41Of the stadium
11:42At this moment in time
11:44Might well be
11:48It's not quite 100 degrees
11:50Fahrenheit anymore
11:51But it
11:52Certainly was when I was
11:54Taking a little tourist stroll
11:55We'll get our Philly cheesesteaks tomorrow
12:01Here come Chelsea looking for another
12:04Mark Gew
12:05Can they get a third to put a seal
12:07On this game in Philadelphia
12:12Gew
12:14The Sugo
12:16And Kunku
12:18Tries to do something
12:19A little bit too fancy
12:21Action Pong
12:23George
12:24Low drive saved
12:25By Ben Said
12:27The angle was against the Chelsea man
12:28But he tried it anyway
12:29And
12:31He just approaches slow
12:32I think that's what I wasn't sure about
12:34Nice strike actually
12:36The goalkeeper was never be
12:38Beaten
12:39It's too straight
12:40Had to go into that
12:42It's Action Pong
12:43Edge of the box
12:44There's the shot
12:45And the save
12:46Will spin up
12:47And in for three
12:55The shot from Rage
12:57Against LAFC
12:59Was Bashir Ben Said
13:01And here at the end
13:02He concedes
13:03A cruel third
13:05But ultimately it's a goal
13:07That Chelsea deserve
13:08Because they've been so
13:09So on top
13:10Because they've been so
13:11So on top
13:12They've been so
13:13And they've been so
13:14To be able to do
13:15The gym
13:17The gym
13:18And there at the end
13:19Of the gym
13:20But these kids
13:21We want to take years
13:22and to have a
13:23We really seem to do
13:24To be able to do
13:25That's how we can find
13:26The gym
13:27We really need to know
13:28The gym
13:29Do
13:30That gap
13:31Do
13:33That gap
13:34And
13:35To the gym
13:36For
13:37man
