The Chelsea stops its march. The streak of 5 consecutive successes was interrupted by the draw obtained against Nottingham Forest in today’s match. A result that leaves more than a few bitter notes on the palate Enzo Marescacoach of the Blues, who spoke like this at the end of the match at BBC: “I think we deserved to win. They are a very good team and we knew they would defend well. It was a tough and difficult match, very different to the one in Brighton. We were patient with the ball and created chances. Overall the performance was good and I think we deserved to win.”
On the saves made by Matz Sels: “Their goalkeeper was the best of the match. We created chances and got to the goal the way we want.” While on the possible concern about the form at home not being up to the results on the road: “I don’t think so. If you analyze the matches, I think that Crystal Palace were like today: we created and we deserved to win. I don’t think there are any other reasons “.
