Did you miss Chelsea U23s 3-0 triumph over Liverpool U23s at Stamford Bridge on Monday night? Fear not, we have highlights of Michy Batshuayi’s brace for you.
Chelsea’s first goal came from an over the top through ball from Antonio Rudiger in the direction of senior teammate Michy Batshuayi. Michy was absolutely clattered by the Liverpool keeper, but got to his feet and executed a gorgeous chip into the back of the net.

Michy’s second was a case of him being alive in the penalty area and finishing emphatically. We’ve seen it time and time again from the Belgian, who appeared to find it relatively easy to find space in the penalty area at U23 level (as you may expect)
he's at it again! @mbatshuayi grabs a second to make it 2-0 vs Liverpool. #CFCDev https://t.co/FcMHxRXb32

Whether Batshuayi will have convinced Frank Lampard he’s worthy of a chance in the first-team after netting this brace remains to be seen. Honestly, two goals at U23 level is the least you would expect from a 25-year-old of his calibre…
