Pedro Neto Scores His First PL Goal Since Joining Chelsea by Ashleyokeneye(op): 2:36pm On Nov 11, 2024
Pedro Lomba Neto is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a winger for Premier League club Chelsea and the Portugal national team. He started his career at Braga, who loaned him to Italian club Lazio in the summer of 2017. Pedro Neto's first Premier League for Chelsea helped them to a point after Gabriel Martinelli had given Arsenal the lead. Chelsea and Arsenal will both enter the international break in the top four of the Premier League, thanks to a 1-1 draw that satisfied neither side. Gabriel Martinelli broke the deadlock for Arsenal against the run of play after Kai Havertz had a goal ruled out for offside in the first half, the Brazilian firing past Robert Sanchez after receiving a cross from the returning Martin Odegaard. However, the lead lasted just 10 minutes before Pedro Neto’s stunner from outside the penalty area drew Chelsea level and neither side could find a decisive second goal to take all three points.

Leandro Trossard had a golden opportunity to score the winner with the last kick of the game but misfired from point-blank range, meaning the spoils were shared at Stamford Bridge and Chelsea remain ahead in the Premier League on goal difference. Both sides are nine points adrift of league leaders Liverpool and four behind Manchester City, though perhaps Mikel Arteta’s biggest concern will be the health of Bukayo Saka as the superstar hobbled off with 10 minutes remaining after a stern challenge from Marc Cucurella.

A game of few chances looked to have been broken open by Havertz on the half-hour mark, just after Martinelli had missed a one-on-one, as a quickly taken free kick set the former Blue free in the penalty area and he finished well under pressure from Moises Caicedo. However, Havertz was correctly ruled offside by the VAR and an unusually misfiring Cole Palmer missed a string of opportunities in the dying embers of the half. He was made to pay when Martinelli slipped through Chelsea’s offside trap in a similar manner to Havertz and made amends for his earlier miss against Sanchez in a contest that looked like one goal could decide it.

Neto had other ideas, latching onto a pinpoint Enzo Fernandez pass then finishing through two defenders with a fizzing shot that David Raya could not reach, and Trossard’s late wastefulness ensured that would be enough for a point.

I can't wait to see what my legs have to offer me in the next few years. If the 1000th goal comes, that's fine… but if it doesn't happen, I'm already the top scorer in history

The FA are set to ban Rodrigo Bentancur for allegedly making a racist remark about Heung-min Son and South Korea while on Uruguayan TV.

The midfielder is likely to receive a 7-match ban, but that figure is unconfirmed
