Tammy Abraham claimed his first senior goal for Chelsea with an ice cold finish that helped the West London club to a 2-1 win over Barcelona in pre-season.

While Barca lined up with their new £107 million forward Antoine Griezmann in the starting XI, it was Camberwell-born baller Abraham who made the headlines with his first goal for Chelsea after just 34 minutes.

The 21-year-old striker latched onto an interception inside the Barcelona box, before calmly taking the ball under his control and performing an improvised 'La Croqueta' around Marc-Andre Ter Stergen to tap into an empty net.

The goal was a sharp reminder of the ability that Abraham possesses, as he seeks to impress new manager Frank Lampard this pre-season and make his claim for a spot in Chelsea's starting line-up for 2019/20.

Speaking to VERSUS earlier this summer, Tammy spoke about his desire to follow other young south London ballers in making their mark at the elite end of the game:

"I grew up with Sancho, so we used to go to the park every summer and have a massive competition where we’d invite 50 of our friends and just kick ball all day! When I look at Sancho now and see what he’s doing – considering where he started – and how big his name is right now, it makes me very proud and it’s inspiring to me."

Tammy Abraham is next up.
