Chelsea midfielder Cuevas hits spectacular goal for Chile U20

Chelsea midfielder Cristian Cuevas produced a wonder goal for Chile U20 in midweek.

He scored an outstanding free-kick while representing his country.

Cuevas, who joined Chelsea from Chilean outfit O'Higgins for £3million in 2013, smashed the ball past Brazil's helpless goalkeeper Marcos from just under 35 yards.

Chile's Under 20 side went on to lose 2-1 against Brazil but Cuevas will have been delighted with his strike, despite the final scoreline.

Cuevas has been sent out on loan to Vitesse, PSV Eindhoven and current side Universidad de Chile since joining Chelsea.
