Maresca has generally been reluctant to lean on the new faces in his squad for this CWC campaign, but Delap has been the exception.

Liam Delap scored his first goal for Chelsea and Enzo Fernández has two assists in a 3-0 win over Esperance on Tuesday night that helped clinch a round-of-16 berth in the Club World Cup.Tosin Adarabioyo scored on a header from 7 yards from Enzo Fernández’s free kick in the third minute off first-half stoppage time.

Liam Delap heads into this weekend's FIFA Club World Cup last sixteen clash with Benfica, having impressed so far in his three outings in the States. "Chelsea will build him up over time, like with a few other youngsters in that squad."
