Ruben Loftus-Cheek pleased with first Chelsea goal

Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek reveals his delight after scoring his first goal for the Blues in Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie against Scunthorpe United.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek has said that it was "a really nice moment" to open his goal-scoring account for Chelsea in the FA Cup.

The 19-year-old was introduced at the interval of Sunday's third-round match against Scunthorpe United and scored his team's second in the 68th minute.

Loftus-Cheek has been with Chelsea since 2004, but has largely struggled to break into the first-team set-up at Stamford Bridge.

"It was a really nice moment," he told BT Sport. "My first goal so I am really, really happy with that. But just to come on and play 45 minutes is amazing. I am just happy to come on and help the team."

The midfielder has now made 11 appearances for Chelsea, seven of which have come in the Premier League.
