Fikayo Tomori Sparkles For Chelsea In Win Against Ajax Amsterdam
Published: March 16, 2016
Chelsea Under 19s have advanced to the semifinals of the UEFA Youth League after beating Ajax Amsterdam 1-0 at Cobham Training Centre, Surrey on Tuesday evening.
The Calgary-born stopper Fikayo Tomori,18, made his seventh appearance in the competition, lasting the distance against the Dutch opponents and helped goalkeeper Bradley Collins post a shutout.
Tomori would have started in defense alongside Anglo-Nigerian Ola Aina but the later was dropped after picking up his third yellow card of the campaign against Valencia on February 23.
England youth international Ike Ugbo was one of five substitutes that failed to get match time against Ajax Amsterdam.
Kyle Scott netted the game-winner for Chelsea one minute before the end of the first half.
