Scott was born in England but, in addition to playing for the Three Lions at the Under-16 level, has also played for the Republic of Ireland's U-17 team and the USA's U-18 and U-20 sides.

The 20-year-old joined the Blues academy when he was 10, and has gone on to help Chelsea win the FA Youth Cup once and the UEFA Youth League twice.

Scott has made the bench for the Chelsea first team in the past, but Friday was the first time he saw game action with the senior side.
