(Video): Young Chelsea goal machine takes amazing chest touch and scores against France

Shim Mheuka just scored a superb goal for England Under-20s against France, showing once again how good he is.

After dominating at youth level, Shim Mheuka has got a senior loan to Celtic, where he’s having to be patient and wait for his chance to shine.

That hasn’t slowed down his scoring form, however. He’s just scored a great goal for England Under-20s against France in the U20 “Elite League.”

Mheuka’s superb goal another reminder he’s too good for youth football

We love so much about this goal. The two movements to first draw in the defenders then break in behind them. The brilliant first touch on the chest to get the ball under control while keeping it moving away from the chasing opponents. The second touch is perfectly weighted to allow him to close in on goal and make space for a shot, then the settling touch and early finish into the bottom corner.

It’s just brilliant striker work. We hope to see more of that with Celtic this season.

Romeo Lavia played his first start for Belgium last night and completed almost the full game, a huge moment for the midfielder after years of injury.

Joao Pedro missed the final game before the international break, and could miss at least one more if reports this week are to be believed.
