Alonso Praises João Pedro After Nine-Minute Hat-Trick in Chelsea Friendly
1 / 2
Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso has praised João Pedro after the Brazilian striker scored a nine-minute hat-trick in the Blues’ 6-4 pre-season win over Western Sydney Wanderers. Pedro came off the bench to score three second-half goals after missing out on Brazil’s World Cup squad. Alonso said the 24-year-old has returned highly motivated and determined to build on last season’s strong form. The Chelsea boss added that the team must create chances collectively rather than depend on one striker. Chelsea face Tottenham Hotspur next as their pre-season tour continues.
