Zhegrova stunner sinks Chelsea in Hong Kong friendly

Juventus claimed a narrow victory over Chelsea in a pre-season friendly in Hong Kong, with a wonderful goal from Edon Zhegrova settling the contest, according to the BBC. The Kosovo international's strike proved the difference in a match that offered both sides a final test before the start of the European season.

The result will be read with interest in Turin, where the club is rebuilding under its current management after a season of transition. A win against a Premier League side, even in a friendly, carries symbolic weight for a squad seeking to re-establish itself among Europe's elite.
