Under-18s report: Chelsea 4 West Ham United 3
17 Aug 2019
A thrilling match at Cobham ended in a 4-3 victory for Chelsea against
West Ham United, which was no less than the Blues deserved despite a few
scares from the visitors, the Under-18s securing a win in our fist home
game of the season.

In truth, the scoreline doesn't reglect Chelsea's dominance for much of
the game, but some frantic action at either end resulted in a hugely
entertaining tie.
First Myles Peart-Harris gave us a deserved lead by turning in Armando
Broja's cut-back from close range, but two goals from West Ham in the
space of a minute just before half-time, first from a corner and then a
rebound after a good save from Lucas Bergstrom.
However, the Blues came out firing after the break, with Broja equalising
from the penalty spot after being fouled in the box and Dynel Simeu
capitalising on a West Ham defensive mistake to give us the lead from
close range.
That advantage was extended to two by Broja's composed finish after he and
Marcel Lewis had dispossessed West Ham on the edge of their own box, but
we had to endure some nervous moments in the final few minutes after West
Ham had pulled a goal back with a deflected effort which wrong-footed
Bergstrom.
Ed Brand made two changes to the team which had won away at champions
Arsenal on the opening day. Sam McClelland came into the back three
alongside skipper Simeu and Levi Colwill, with Bergstrom continuing
between the posts behind them. That saw Henry Lawrence move to the left
wing-back spot in an otherwise unchanged midfield four, with Tino
Lavramento on the right and Lewis Bate partnering Xavier Simons in the
middle. Broja resumed his duties as the lone striker, but with Marcel
Lewis joining Peart-Harris behind him.

Some familiar faces were watching the Under-18s' first game at Cobham this
season
West Ham had the first attempt on goal five minutes in, but the low shot
from outside the box was never troubling Bergstrom, who gathered the ball
with a minimum of fuss. Things were much more difficult for his opposite
number in the Hammers' net moments later, when Lawrence cut in from the
left and forced a good save low at the near post.
Bergstrom had to be brave to beat the striker to a clever through pass,
diving in to claim the ball despite a sliding challenge which resulted in
the referee blowing for a foul.
The visitors were applying plenty of pressure though, with Colwill needing
to intervene with an excellent sliding interception to cut out a squared
pass on the edge of the six-yard box which took Bergstrom out of the game.
However, despite the pressure, it was Chelsea who came close to getting
the opening goal as we broke down the right, Lewis running at the
left-back before playing in Livramento, but the keeper made himself big to
stop the shot. It was the same story just seconds later, this time Lewis
unable to find a way past Krisztian Hegyi after being found all alone at
the back post with a pass across the face of goal.
There was concern for Broja when he went down following a challenge with
the goalkeeper, trying to close down the West Ham back line and block the
clearance, but after a brief pause he was okay to continue.
After dusting himself down, Broja had a big part to play in the opening
goal as the game approached the half-hour mark. The striker latched onto a
sliced West Ham clearance just outside the box, beat his man down the
right channel to reach the byeline and cut the ball back for Peart-Harris
to calmly turn the ball past the keeper from a few yards out.

Peart-Harris scores the first goal
By now Chelsea were dominating possession and Broja will be disappointed
not to have extended our lead, after being found on the penalty spot by
Lewis' cross from the left and rising above the West Ham defenders, but he
couldn't keep his header away from the keeper. He went close again five
minutes before half-time, being played in by Livramento's through ball,
but his shot rippled the side netting at the near post.
However, against the run of play, West Ham pulled level just before the
break, as Veron Parkes' clever run across the face of goal allowed him to
meet a corner kick at the near post and head it past Bergstrom from close
range.
Unbelievably, the visitors then got another to take the lead less than a
minute later. Bergstrom did well to get down and stop Dan Chester's shot
from the edge of the box, but could do nothing as Seb Nebyla followed up
to slide in the rebound from close range.
Brand chose to make a change at half-time, Dion Rankine replacing Simons
and taking up a position on the left wing, with Lawrence switching into
midfield.

Broja makes no mistake from the penalty spot
The Blues had the best possible start to the second half when a challenge
on Broja in the box saw the referee pointing to the penalty spot. The
striker got up and took the spot-kick himself, smashing the ball into the
roof of the net with enough power to beat Hegyi, despite the keeper
getting a hand to it.
Just six minutes later we were ahead, as Simeu capitalised on a defensive
mix-up by West Ham. The visitors' skipper intercepted Bate's high ball
across the edge of their box, but sent it looping towards his own goal,
wrong-footing the keeper, before Simeu got to the ball first to nudge it
across the line and make sure.

Simeu celebrates giving us the lead
Before long, we had extended our lead to provide some breathing room for
the first time. Lewis did well to put pressure on West Ham's defenders,
allowing Broja to steal in and nick the ball away inisde the box. He
steadied himself, then finished well under pressure to make it 4-2 to
Chelsea, a lead we more than deserved, despite West Ham enjoying more
possession in the second half.
That goal was quickly followed by our second substitution, as Sam Iling
Junior replaced Peart-Harris and went out to the left, Rankine taking up
Peart-Harris' role behind Broja.
Lewis went inches away from getting a fifth, as he chested down a headed
clearance on the edge of the box and hit a sweet half-volley just wide of
the top corner, and Rankine then tested the keeper with a powerful effort
at the near post.

Broja gets his second goal of the game
Iling Junior came even closer, cutting onto his right foot after being
found in the left channel by Lewis and curling an effort towards the far
post from just outside the box, which unfortunately clipped the angle of
post and bar on its way behind for a goal-kick.
However, it was the Hammers who found the net again, in rather fortunate
style, as substitute Sam Caiger's hopeful shot from just inside the
penalty area was deflected and spun into the net with Bergstrom left
stranded.
Bergstrom was equal to anything else West Ham could throw at him in the
closing stages, though, as the tension rose and things became a little
scrappy.
However, the victory was no less than Chelsea's performance had deserved
despite West Ham providing a few scares along the way, and ensured we took
maximum points from our first two league games of the season.
