(Video) Chelsea Wonderkid Scores Backheel Golazo Against Arsenal Youth

Stamford Bridge starlet scores remarkable equalising strike against Arsenal U21s in youth league.

Chelsea midfielder Lewis Baker has been touted as the next Frank Lampard, but scored a goal against Arsenal’s Under-21 side that brought a different Blues legend to mind: Gianfranco Zola.

The diminutive Italian scored a remarkable backheel from a corner against Norwich City in 2002, and Baker emulated it with a similar finish from the centre of the box.

The 18 year-old’s goal against the Gunners’ U21s can be viewed below, with Zola’s strike beneath that for comparison.
