Chelsea lost 0-1 to Manchester City at Stamford Bridge, Saturday (25/9/2021), night WIB, in the 2021-2022 Premier League continued. Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel, admitted his team deserved to lose because they played badly. The only goal of the game was created by Gabriel Jesus in the 53rd minute. The Brazilian hit the ball for Edouard Mendy's Chelsea after his shot hit Jorginho.
Before the goal was created, the Blues tried to survive the onslaught of Josep Guardiola's troops. Chelsea couldn't even fire a shot and only had 40 per cent of the ball. Therefore, Tuchel said his team deserved to lose in this match. However, he said that his men performed quite well because they could build attacks to Man City's defense even though they couldn't do anything after that.
"We lost and City deserved to win. Until the goal we were very strong in the last 20 yards of the pitch, but unfortunately it didn't produce anything."
"On the other hand, we were not good enough to reduce the pressure and attack them. Overall, to put it simply, we were not at our best level." Furthermore, Tuchel revealed, that his team appeared less confident after conceding one goal. According to him, Romelu Lukaku and colleagues looked scared and did not have the confidence to get up and turn things around.
"After the goal, there was less belief in winning than the fear of losing. I don't know why," concluded the German coach.
