After the final whistle, team captain Reece James did not blame the external factors, but directly gave a pardon to the team.. Chelsea has grown and controlled the group for the first 60 weeks.
Just after serving the crown of James, the ball ricocheted towards Joao Pedro, pinning himself at the net and stealing the Birmingham players. Prote another half became a nightmare for the rulers Stamford Bridge: Ollie Watkins' double turned everything on its head.
In conversation with journalists after the match, James was as self-critical as possible. It is important that the team lost control itself when their opponent became more aggressive.

The captain emphasized that Unai Emeri’s tactical changes were no small surprise:.
“We knew that the stinks would be replaced, that their shape would change a little, but it wasn’t something we couldn’t get into. We understand our style. We ourselves are to blame for this result.. Two small mercy on our side - and we were immediately punished. That’s why the world’s league is most important,” James said.
