Speaking after the game, Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca was happy with the performance of his team. “It was a very good performance. I think we struggled a little bit at the beginning of the game. And we adjusted; we struggled off the ball with our pressing; I think on the ball we were quite good—and then we made some adjustments and were much better.” He said.
