PEDRO NETO NEWS

Provides assist in victory Neto assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Everton.

Impact Neto drove at Everton's backline repeatedly and provided the decisive action for the second goal, bursting past his defender before cutting the ball back for Malo Gusto's finish just before halftime. His direct running kept Everton pinned and opened lanes for Cole Palmer and Malo Gusto to attack space. Even after the break, he remained Chelsea's most reliable outlet for progression in wide areas and was valuable on set pieces, contributing two chances created, five crosses, and three corners.
