Ruben Loftus-Cheek completes PL2 game and wins decisive penalty
03 Mar 2020
Ruben Loftus-Cheek played the full 90 minutes of tonight's PL2 match at
Aldershot, in which Chelsea beat Everton 1-0, and won the penalty which
was dispatched by Luke McCormick to maintain the development squad's
three-point lead at the top of the table.

It was another major step in the latter stages of his return to full match
fitness with the prospect of action for our senior side in the closing
months of the season. The 24-year-old was involved throughout tonight,
showing some flashes of his skills in midfield and he was in the penalty
area late on for what proved to be the decisive moment against an Everton
side who were hard to break down.
There was a late moment of concern when Loftus-Cheek was chopped down by a
challenge that earned an opponent a yellow card but after treatment he was
on his feet to complete the game.
Everton, playing five men strung in a line across midfield, had 10 players
behind the ball for almost the whole game, posing a stiff challenge to
Chelsea to try to break them down. It was a task we faced without any of
our three topscorers for the development squad this season.
The side picked by Andy Myers for tonight's game showed five changes from
the win against Arsenal in the previous outing. Injury played a part in the
case of Levi Colwill, who was carried off in last week's FA Youth Cup win.
The breakthrough did not come in an uneventful first half. McCormick
skimmed a low shot across the turf and into the Everton keeper's arms
inside the first 10 minutes in one of the rare shots on target.
Loftus-Cheek, who ruptured an Achilles tendon back in May, had played an
hour in a training ground match for the development squad against
Brentford B a month ago and been an unused sub in recent games for Frank
Lampard's side. Tonight he played in the no.10 role and early on attempted
to give Tariq Uwakwe a shooting opportunity but the winger was crowded out
by Everton midway through the half.
With his first shot of the game, Loftus-Cheek won a corner when it
deflected off a defender. Uwakwe met Henry Lawrence's delivery but on the
stretch, could not direct the header on target.

Thierno Ballo was centre-forward tonight
Uwakwe and Loftus-Cheek continued to be players involved in Chelsea's most
promising attacks but when they moved the ball quickly to the edge of the
penalty area just before half-time, McCormick skied his shot. Ian Maatsen,
who had joined an attack, screwed a low shot wide not long after.
Everton were restricted to a couple of testing deliveries and one ball
across the face of the Chelsea goal when it came to first-half attacks,
whereas many of our moves had broken down on the edge of their area where
the Toffee wall had been built.
Uwakwe, supplied by a neat piece of skill by tonight's centre-forward,
Thierno Ballo, warmed the hands of Harry Tyrer in the Everton goal early
in the second half, and there was a claim for handball when a McCormick
cross was blocked. The appeal was turned down but it did lead to a corner
and to a powerful Uwakwe volley which looked goalbound until it hit a
defender.
Suddenly, and in contrast to the first half, the Everton goal was leading
a charmed life. Jon Russell somehow did not bundle the ball in from close
range after a goalmouth scramble and another Uwakwe shot was saved.
Bryan Fiabema, the Norwegian 17-year-old who joined last month, came on up
front for the final half-hour and his Under-23s debut. However it was
Uwakwe again testing the keeper soon after with a free-kick.

Bryan Fiabema made his dev squad debut
It could have been Loftus-Cheek with the winner with quarter-of-an-hour to
go when he met Maatsen's corner at the near post but his powerful header
went the wrong side of the upright.
Tino Livramento came on and looked lively out wide but the winning goal
was to come from the penalty spot after Everton captain Beni Baningime
barged Loftus-Cheek in the back as he shielded the ball.
McCormick's 83rd-minute penalty was emphatically blasted into the back of
the net. The scorer came closest to adding a second goal with an open-play
effort but his spot-kick proved enough for victory and a cushion at the
top of the table with four PL2 fixtures remaining.

PL2 reaction: Andy Myers assesses Everton win and Loftus-Cheek's comeback
03 Mar 2020
Our development squad are now unbeaten in 18 league games after last
night's win over Everton, Luke McCormick converting an 83rd-minute
penalty, won by Ruben Loftus-Cheek, to maintain a three-point lead at the
top of the PL2 table.

Head coach Andy Myers spoke after his team's victory and credited the
display at Aldershot. He also spoke on the winning goal, Loftus-Cheek's
return and the PL2 title run-in.
On the performance...
'In the first half, we lacked intensity a little bit and played in to
their hands.' Myers told the official Chelsea website. 'They got behind
the ball quickly and made it hard and difficult for us to break them
down. The second half was different - we had to make forward runs to try
and penetrate them and I think we did that and broke them down eventually.
'It's hard playing against a team that get behind the ball. You've got to
be brave and when you get the opportunity to break you need players to
run, penetrate and move the ball quick – that's what we did.'
On the winning goal...
'Luke McCormick converted the penalty really well and it was no more than
we deserved but the most positive thing for the club is the fact that
Ruben got through 90 minutes and it was a strong 90 against a tough team',
explained the development squad boss. 'There was some good play that led
to the goal - we were being intricate in and around the box and then Luke
steps up under pressure and scores a very good penalty.'
On the remaining four PL2 games...
'Points mean everything,' he continued. 'Leicester also won tonight,
keeping the momentum up there, making sure we have to keep winning or
getting points. Every game now has got to be treated like a final and the
players are aware of that. With four games left, it's in our hands at the
moment but we have to respect the opposition and make sure we are ready to
give everything to the cause.'
