Chelsea striker Abraham: I love scoring at Arsenal!

Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham was delighted with his goal in victory at Arsenal in yesterday's preseason friendly.

Abraham capitalised on a wayward Hector Bellerin pass before calmly slotting past Arsenal's German keeper.

"We've been working on the press all pre-season and it paid off for the second goal," Abraham to the club's website.

"I love coming here, even though it's a friendly I always love scoring goals, and luckily for me it was the winning goal again."

Abraham played the second 45 minutes in north London having been on the pitch for an hour at Bournemouth five days earlier.

"I'm absolutely tired! Shattered. The boys have been working hard in training. It's for the best because we are all ready for the season.

"We will take our time, we still have a couple more sessions to come, and we still have players coming back, so we're bonding and I am sure we will get there.

"Before we know it we're back, we have to keep working hard and I'm sure we will be ready for the season."
