Chelsea beat Mexico's Club America 2-1 in an international club friendly in Las Vegas. Mason Mount sealed the victory in the 83rd minute with a sensational right-footed shot from outside the box.

German striker, Timo Werner had given Chelsea a momentary lead in the 55th but a sloppy backpass from Reece James resulted in an own-goal five minutes later that gifted Club America the equalizer.
Chelsea's Brazilian international Kenedy fired wide in the 24th, Kai Havertz shot over the crossbar in the 29th, and in the 40th substitute, America's keeper Oscar Jimenez blocked Thiago Silva's header from the center of the box.
The 47 who turned out at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders, watched both teams struggle to finish in the first half. Mason Mount sealed the victory in the 83rd minute with a sensational right-footed shot from outside the box.
The advantage was erased in the 60th when James's backpass caught goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli off guard and both could only watch the ball trickle into the net.
Mount saved the day, collecting a pass from Marcos Alonso and making room to unleash a shot that beat Jimenez.
