An hour for Van Ginkel in Under-21 game

By

Marco van Ginkel played an hour for Chelsea’s Under-21s as they beat Blackburn 1-0 on Friday evening.

The Dutch midfielder, back in action after six months out with a knee injury, played 45 minutes for Dermot Drummy’s side against Manchester United last week.

And this time he featured for longer at Chelsea’s Cobham training ground, where Islam Feruz netted a first-half winner – his 10th goal of the season.

Nathan Ake, John Swift and Lewis Baker all came close to doubling the young Blues’ lead in a one-sided game.

Drummy’s team are now unbeaten in their last 11 matches in the Under-21 Premier League.
