Watch: Chelsea FC starlet Jesse Derry scores stunning first goal of Sporting loan

Published by Sam Flores

He was handed his first senior start in a Premier League meeting with Nottingham Forest, but was forced off with a head injury after a nasty collision with goalkeeper Zach Abbott. Derry will not be in west London to witness the start of Xabi Alonso’s reign, though, after he was sent out on a one-season loan to Sporting, where he has made a fast start to life. Derry came on as a second-half substitute, replacing Issa Doumbia on the hour mark, and had his first goal in the club’s colours less than ten minutes later. He received the ball to feet in the box before quickly lashing a curled effort beyond the reach of goalkeeper Philipp Kohn, who was left rooted. Watch: Jesse Derry scores stunning first Sporting goal Derry celebrated by mimicking Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers’ ‘cold’ celebration, which might have seemed out of place in the toasty climes of Lisbon. Writing on his social media later, Derry thanked the Sporting faithful for their reception, writing: “What dreams are made of. Thank you …

The picturesque Northumberland Coast is sure to be a hit with staycationers this summer (Image: Catherine Addison-Swan/ChronicleLive) Holidaymakers who abandoned one of Britain’s best-known coastal destinations for a more tranquil stretch of coastline say they have no regrets, with one couple claiming there was one significant factor behind their decision to stop returning. Their verdict comes as a charming Northumberland village has once again been named the UK’s finest seaside destination, beating some of the nation’s biggest and busiest beach resorts. Travel writer Tom Chesshyre visited Bamburgh following its top ranking in the annual Which? survey for a sixth consecutive year, describing its expansive sandy shore, serene ambience and striking castle setting as a combination that’s difficult to match.
