Chelsea youngster Trevoh Chalobah was thrilled with his goalscoring performance in victory over Crystal Palace.

Chalobah hit a screamer in the 3-0 win.

He later said, "I couldn't believe it when the ball went it. I didn't know what to do and I dropped to my knees. I was over the moon.

"I didn't know the ball went in until the crowd cheered. It's a surreal moment.

"I would have never dreamed of this. Moments like this come and you just have to be patient. From the day I came in my aim was to impress the manager, whether that's in training or anywhere. I think I've done that well, I got my opportunity and I've taken it."

On being calm on the pitch, he added: "In this moment, I just wanted to enjoy my debut. As a young boy I've always dreamed to play in these games for my club so I made sure I was ready and enjoyed it. I wasn't too nervous."
