Former Chelsea goalkeeper Rob Green heaped praise on Timo Werner for his work in victory over Leeds United yesterday.
Werner was involved in a bizarre moment while the Blues were 1-0 down at Stamford Bridge, as he somehow diverted an effort that was seemingly bound for goal up and onto the crossbar from point blank range.
It was the type of miss that some players would take years to get over, but to the German's credit he kept plugging away and was denied on more occasions by Leeds' impressive young goalkeeper Illan Meslier.
Werner later made his mark in the closing stages of the game as he raced clear for Christian Pulisic to secure victory for the hosts.
Werner's movement and energy levels late in the game didn't go unnoticed by the former Chelsea and Leeds goalkeeper Green, who covered the match as a pundit for Sky Sports.
Touching on Werner running right in front of Frank Lampard before teeing up the goal, he said: "You've got to give credit to Timo Werner.
"He struggled in front of goal tonight. We laughed at half-time with the opportunities he had.
"We criticised Manchester United (at West Ham ) with the willingness to run-in behind.
"He ran in front of Frank Lampard in the dugout in the 93rd minute against a team that are the fittest team in the league, showed composure at the end of it to put that perfectly weighted cross in."
