Chelsea  2 - 2  PSA    Kwon 19, Gus 31

In what was PSA’s most prestigious game of the tour the PSA gave Chelsea a fright and almost pulled off a major upset. The final score line of 2-2 was a credit to the boys who battled bravely against one of the top Premier League club’s youth team. The PSA team took the lead after 19 minutes when Soon Ill Kwon converted a cross from the right flank and Hong Il Kim made it two when his right footed free kick curved around the Chelsea wall and went in off the post reducing the Chelsea keeper to a spectator.

            The PSA led 2 nil at half time and an upset looked possible but the Chelsea boys with two Nigerian and an English youth international in their line up came out firing in the second half putting the visitors under constant pressure. The PSA defense was finally breached in the 65th minute to put the Londoners back in the game. With PSA hanging on Chelsea broke away with 5 minutes remaining and their big Nigerian striker lobbed the keeper to salvage a draw for the premier league team. It was a magnificent performance for the touring Australian team who rose to the occasion and almost stole an unlikely victory.
