Chelsea 1 Newcastle 1: Jackson finds net once again as Blues are held by Toon

NICOLAS JACKSON continued his fine form in the United States as Chelsea were held by Newcastle in Atlanta.

The Blues’ £32m summer signing opened the scoring against the Toon at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a 12th minute finish.

Senegal international Jackson now has two goals in three games for his new club on this USA trip, as well as four assists.

Miguel Almiron equalised just before half time in what was a tightly contested clash.

Eddie Howe’s Toon remain unbeaten in their pre-season so far, as do Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea, who face Fulham in Washington on Sunday before a challenging encounter against Borussia Dortmund in Chicago next week to tee up their Premier League opener against Liverpool on August 12.
