Chelsea FC 3:1 Real Sociedad — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

João Pedro struck twice as Chelsea beat Real Sociedad 3-1 in a Club Friendly Game. The forward’s brace, either side of a Jon Aramburu equaliser, settled a contest that was tighter than the scoreline suggests, though with no next fixture confirmed, attention turns to how this attacking display carries into the season.

Morgan Rogers opened the scoring in the 11th minute before Aramburu levelled on the stroke of half-time. Chelsea came out with intent after the break, and João Pedro headed them ahead in the 47th minute from Reece James’ delivery, then sealed matters on 77 minutes with Malo Gusto providing the assist. There were no cards or VAR interventions to disrupt a flowing second half.

Real Sociedad edged the shot count 16 to 15, but Chelsea’s 59% possession told the real story. The hosts managed only three first-half shots to Sociedad’s ten, yet transformed after the interval with twelve attempts to their opponents’ six. João Pedro earns the 7.6 rating for his two goals as a forward, the clear difference between the sides on a day when Chelsea’s control grew as the match wore on.
