Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas is pleased with the way his team reacted to the early goal in the match against Newcastle.

In the match of the 15th round of the English Premier League Chelsea home beat Newcastle with a score of 3: 1, although the "blue" missed the first in the 12th minute of the match.

"I think that we showed a good game and to the missed goal, but perhaps the mistake we made was a signal for us to awaken, made us activate. We reacted well to this goal, made a comeback and brought the matter to a confident victory, "- said Fabregas.

"Now we have slightly changed the scheme and play with three midfielders, so I'm a little closer to the gate of others. This allows me to find easier Azar, Morata and other attackers, although I would not say that I had more freedom, because the coach wants each player to act tactically correctly ".

"Of course, we lag behind Manchester City by eight points, while they have a match in hand, but until the end of the season still play and play, so we do not give up. We need to continue to win and hope that they will stumble, and at the end of the season we'll see what the situation will be at the top of the table ".

In the current season, Fabegas spent 19 Chelsea matches in the Premier League and the Champions League, which scored two goals and gave four assists.
