CHELSEA wonderkid Omari Hutchinson scored a brilliant solo goal to help the Under-21s beat Leyton Orient 3-2.
The youngster opened the scoring early in the second half before a last-ditch comeback sent the Blues through to the next round of the Papa John’s Trophy.
The chance actually came from an Orient corner with the headed clearance finding Hutchinson just inside his own half.
But he used his blistering pace to quickly corner defender Jayden Sweeney into a one-on-one situation.
The winger then showed quick feet and an emphatic finish to fire the ball past O’s goalkeeper Sam Sergeant.
Hutchinson is very highly rated with the 18-year-old compared to Raheem Sterling.

The wonderkid also generated a lot of buzz and excitement when he joined Chelsea from Arsenal in the summer.
So far he has been confined to the U21s but he impressed Blues fans with his goal at Brisbane Road.
One supporter wrote: “He’s actually better than Saka.”
Another added: “Time for him to start training with the men’s squad.”

The England under-19 international also produced two late equalisers to help Chelsea overturn a 2-1 deficit.
