LOAN WATCH: Chelsea's Lucas Piazon scores brace in Vitesse win

On-loan Chelsea midfielder Lucas Piazon netted a brace to set Vitesse Arnhem on their way to a 3-0 victory over PEC Zwolle in the Dutch Eredivisie on the weekend.

The 19-year old Brazilian's maiden goal for Vitesse came in the 35th minute when he calmly finished from close range after being left all alone at the back post.

Piazon doubled his tally with two minutes remaining in the second half when he converted Francisco Junior's backheel to make it 3-0 for the home side.

Speaking to Inside Futbol after the game, Piazon said: "We can play football. I expect to be at the top of the Eredivisie."

Both Chelsea and Vitesse fans will be hoping that Piazon, who has been hailed as the new 'Kaka', can convert his talent into consistent form throughout this season.
