LOAN WATCH: Chelsea's Perica scores late winner for NAC Breda

Chelsea starlet Stipe Perica scored with eight minutes remaining as NAC Breda defeated Heracles Almelo 2-1 at the Fujifilm Stadion on the weekend.

After Heracles equalized in the 51st minute through Thomas Bruns, Breda manager Nebojsa Gudelj replaced forward Danny Verbeek with the 18-year old Croatian and his decision would prove to be the difference as the match entered into its final stages.

When Jordy Buijs whipped in a free kick into the Breda box, Perica was there to head home, giving Breda all three points making them undefeated in their last five matches.

Perica has now scored two goals in four outings for NAC who currently sit 10th on the Dutch Eredivisie table.
