The youngster had experienced a rocky start to the new season, but was still selected for the game ahead of Olivier Giroud. Tammy Abraham hit the post against Manchester United in the opening weekend, and then failed to convert the decisive spot-kick in a penalty shootout loss to Liverpool in the UEFA Super Cup.

However, Lampard selected him for the Norwich game, hoping to make good use of his speed and movement in the final third.

The Englishman started the game with a bang, after some good work down the right by Cesar Azpilicueta. The Spaniard’s cross found its way to Abraham, who had pulled away from the defenders in the box. The Englishman scored with a perfect low hit that gave his team the lead.

Abraham continued to be active and did have a few more half chances in the box. He combined well with Mason Mount to cause the opposition defense a lot of problems.

In the second half, his decisive running bore fruit, as he recieved a pass from Kovacic on the edge of the box, moved inside and unleashed another venomous volley to score his second of the game.

On the day where Frank Lampard required a response from his team, Abraham stepped up and delivered a miracle for his boss.
