Title:

Need help identifying SC70 "CFT" chip on water damaged board

Text:

Hello all
My sister is a writer, and she managed to spill her hot cocoa all over her MacBook. I have cleaned and inspected the board thoroughly, and I've only found one component showing signs of damage so far.
I know its a SC70 package, its marked with "CFT", but I can't seem to track down what it is, what it does, or a replacement part. I have found similar looking components, some of which are INA213's, but I can't identify this puppy for sure.
Can someone please help me identify it?
I have attached a photo below. It's not the "actual" board but its close enough to do the trick. I have circled the damaged SMD with red at the bottom of the picture, just to the left of the fan.

+*EDIT*
+I just thought I would update this for future searchers looking for answers to their tricky questions.
+I completed this repair after replacing the keyboard and around 15 SMD components. The computer passed it's Apple Hardware Test and ran without a hitch until we sold it in 2016. To the best of my knowledge it is still going! Have hope, ye water-damage repairers!
