Incredible ref cam footage shows moment Chelsea star Pedro Neto sent opponent ‘back to LA and into next MLS season’

PEDRO NETO’S brilliant Club World Cup goal was caught in remarkable ref cam footage.

The Chelsea star bagged the Blues’ first goal of this year’s revamped tournament against Hugo Lloris’ LAFC.

At this year’s Club World Cup, referees are wearing cameras in an attempt to give viewers an interesting new perspective on the action.

In the ref cam replay of Neto’s goal, the Portuguese could be seen chopping inside before thwacking a shot beyond Lloris.

The official then turned around to see the winger celebrating with his team-mates.

Fans enjoyed the different angle, with one writing on social media: “That is pretty good.”

While a second joked: “Legends have it that defender is still sliding.”

A third gushed: “This cam is fire.“

And a fourth joked that Neto had sent the defender “back to LA and into next MLS season”.

Another added: “Haha wicked this!!”

Chelsea went on to win 2-0, with substitute Enzo Fernandez grabbing their second goal.

After the game, boss Enzo Maresca told DAZN: “A very good result. At this stage of the season, it is also normal that you have to manage different kinds of things.

“Overall the performance has been good.”

The satisfied Italian, 45, went on to add: “We have to recover.

“We have a game in three days so we will see. We are going to prepare in the best way and for sure try to win.”

Chelsea will be back in action on Friday, when they face Brazilian side Flamengo in Philadelphia.

Their group stage will then conclude with a match against ES Tunis in Philly next Wednesday.
