Chelsea star Eden Hazard’s brilliant words to Daniel Sturridge after his stunning, last-gasp Liverpool equaliser, revealed
Belgian ace hilariously ordered the Reds forward to replicate his absolute peach of a left-footed strike next weekend when Jurgen Klopp and Co take on title rivals Manchester City
CHELSEA star Eden Hazard enjoyed a laugh with Daniel Sturridge after the latter's stunning equaliser for Liverpool yesterday.
The Belgian ace, 27, hilariously ordered the Reds forward to replicate the feat next weekend... when they take on title rivals Manchester City.
Sturridge scored an absolute peach of a goal in the final minute of the 90, picking out the top, far corner with a stunning left-footed strike to salvage a 1-1 draw.
In the tunnel after the game, Hazard was heard saying to Sturridge: “Great goal... just make sure you do it again next weekend!"
The Belgian star later told BBC Sport: "I said to [Sturridge] the goal wasn't bad, to be fair.
"He scored twice. One Wednesday, one today like me. Maybe he try to be like me.

"But no he is a great, great player. I had a chance to play with him a bit at Chelsea.
"And I know he is a fantastic player. He had a lot of injuries in the last few years but when he is on the pitch he can create goals like this.
"I am happy for him but not happy for Chelsea."
Earlier in the game, Hazard had scored to give the Blues a 1-0 lead after his stunner in the Carabao Cup win against the same opposition midweek.
