Champions League: Gary Lineker singles out one Chelsea player after win over RB Salzburg

Former Barcelona striker, Gary Lineker, has singled out Chelsea forward Kai Havertz for praise after following the Blues’ UEFA Champions League 2-1 win over RB Salzburg on Tuesday night.

Havertz scored a goal as Chelsea defeated RB Salzburg at Red Bull Arena Salzburg.

His teammate Mateo Kovacic also scored for Graham Potter’s side.

Chelsea are now on top of Group E with 10 points from five matches.

Reacting, Lineker, in a tweet via his Twitter handle, described Havertz’s goal as ‘gorgeous’.

“Gorgeous goal from @kaihavertz29,” Lineker tweeted.

Havertz will now hope to continue his impressive display for Chelsea when they face Brighton in their next game on Saturday.
