A large number of attacks at the gate of Pickford was not enough to provide "retirees" victory over Everton (0: 0).

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois commented on a tie with Everton in the match of the 19th round of the English Premier League.

"I think we deserved to win. We fought for the victory, and we think that we just were not lucky, several times the ball was taken out of the line. We needed to be careful during the counterattack, but apart from the angular and dangerous free-kick, they had no moments, so we defended well, we just had no luck in that we did not win, "- quotes the official website of the Chelsea.

"They had eight-nine players in the penalty area. We did transmissions and tried to find space, because we have such great players as Willian, Pedro and Eden, so we tried to pull their defenses. The only thing that, probably, we could do better, is to hit the target, beat from afar, and do not serve, because we in this match did not have a high player in the attack ".

"During the break, the coach said that we should not lose patience, it was necessary to give the ball to the flanks, so that Willian, Pedro or Moses would face one-on-one with the opponent. The defender could shoot dangerously into the penalty area or make a cross. In the second half Everton changed the scheme, and the game also changed, making the moments became more difficult. We created a few more moments, but did not score, so I'm certainly not happy with this, but the team needs to move on. We could have won and had to win, but what to do - we are tuning for the next match ".
