Teenager Lewis Hall made his debut against Chesterfield in the FA Cup.
The 17-year old defender provided an assist for Romelu Lukaku who whipped in an excellent strike at the back of the net.
Hall impressed in his position at left-back and stood his ground the entire game.
The academy graduate also took a shot in the 39th minute but was kept out before Andreas Christensen headed home in the rebound.
Thomas Tuchel has been very happy with the youngster’s performance and his training over the past few weeks.
Tuchel said: “It was his performance in general and his attitude in training. The quality he showed was very calm and very good in our possession games and the little games he trained in. We never really trained with the full squad so it was more small-sided games but he was good.
“It’s clear what we demand in the players in the position. We have a very supportive dressing room and this is very good for the young boys. They have to step up and show what they are capable of and they did again.”
