Chelsea topped our Group in the Under-19s tournament in Dallas with this convincing win over Arsenal USA. The other Group winners were Real Madrid and Sao Paulo.
Madrid and Sao Paulo now contest one semi-final. Chelsea face wild card second placed Southampton from one of the Groups in the other semi-final.
Arsenal USA, says Chelsea manager Brendan Rodgers, are a highly rated team.
'They are the All-American national champions at that age. They are very strong.'
But Chelsea won easily with two more goals from Ben Sahar - he now has five in the tournament - plus goals from Lee Sawyer, Sam Hutchinson (pictured) and Sergio Tejera.
A Hutchinson foul gave Arsenal USA a penalty at 4-0.
The team lined up with a four-man diamond midfield, one striker, and one winger.
Today is a second day off for the youngsters. On their first one they visited the JFK museum. Today they are shopping!
They have topped the Group by beating Guadalajara 2-1, Takigawa Daini 4-1 and now Arsenal USA.
Team Hamann; Cummings (Ofori-Twumasi), Bridcutt (Magnay), Hutchinson, Elmer (Bird); Cork (c); Sawyer (Taiwo), Woods; Tejera; Sahar (Nielsen); Stoch (F Ferreira).
