Chelsea winger Estêvão delivered a goal and an assist as Brazil beat India 4-0 in Kolkata on Saturday.

Estêvão sets out Chelsea focus

In post-match comments reported by UOL, Estêvão welcomed the opportunity to build match rhythm and looked ahead to his club return.

Speaking in Portuguese, he said, translated into English:

“When I return now, I’ll try to give my maximum at the club so I can be back here.”

His goal against India followed the frustration of having a strike disallowed against Australia earlier in the international window.

Estêvão now heads back to Chelsea with two direct goal contributions from Brazil’s final friendly.

The Blues’ next Premier League fixture is against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, 10 October, with kick-off at 3pm BST.
