As part of the eleventh round of the English Premier League, London Chelsea hosted Leeds. This game was one of the first in the new season of the Premier League, to which 2000 spectators were allowed. "
Chelsea coach Frank Lampard summed up the results of this confrontation between his team, and his words during the post-match press conference are quoted on the club's official website.
" Their contribution was enormous given the noise they were making "
" I will drink a small glass of wine, maybe a large one, but stay in touch with reality. Playing this way against Leeds, who are in great shape, with their type of team, being so dominant in the moments created, was really a great occasion for us to praise our performance. "
" Although, to be honest, today he could have scored two or three more goals. "
Chelsea head coach also praised French midfielder Ngolo Kante's performance in this match: “When you ask him to do something on the pitch, when you tell him that he has another challenge, he just quietly does what is needed in the most incredible way. Our midfield coped brilliantly with the agile Leeds.
"
However, in a successful fight there was a place for not the most pleasant moments for the “blue”. Moroccan striker Hakim Ziyeh was injured, and after half an hour in the game was forced to leave the field. " A clear disappointment for our team during a busy period. However, I was pleased with the performance of the substitute Pulisic, as he also only recently recovered from an injury. "
In the next round, London Chelsea will host an away confrontation against Everton.
