Pedro Neto has done it again. The Portuguese winger, who has been Chelseaβs unsung hero in recent weeks, scored again to make it 2-0 against Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium β and it was not just one, but a brace.
The first goal settled the nerves, but the second? Pure relief. In the 91st minute, with Everton pushing, Neto found the back of the net again to double Chelseaβs lead and kill the game. Pickford had denied him earlier, but he was not to be denied twice. Two chances, two goals β clinical.
What makes this win even more emotional is what happened before it. Chelseaβs new goalkeeper Emi Martinez had to be rushed to hospital after a sickening clash of heads and was taken off on a stretcher. It cast a shadow over the game. After the final whistle, Neto dedicated the result and his Man of the Match award to Martinez in his interview with TNT Sports.
For Chelsea, these are precious three points. Away at Everton is never easy, but with Neto in this form β tireless, hardworking, and now scoring for fun β the Blues are starting to look like a team with heart again.
