Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia has heaped praise on Nicolas Jackson following the 1-0 Premier League win over Everton at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues registered a second-straight league victory on Saturday. Nicolas Jackson scored the only goal of the game with a long-range effort.
It was the Senegalese's first goal from outside the box and speaking after the game, Lavia said that he is not surprised by Jackson's stellar strike.
He said: "He may not have done it in the Premier League, but I have seen him do it loads in training so I am not surprised. I am really happy for him."
With the victory, the Blues have moved into the final Champions League spot in fifth, but Nottingham Forest could retain their place on Thursday.
Forest are scheduled to host Brentford in the top flight next week and a point would be enough to retain the position ahead of the Blues once again.
Chelsea need to keep on winning to stay in the hunt.
