EPL: Man Utd defended deep – Tuchel reacts as Chelsea failed to win game
Chelsea boss, Thomas Tuchel, has reacted to his side’s Premier League 1-1 draw with Manchester United.
Tuchel said Man United defended deep during the encounter at Stamford Bridge.
Two goals from Jadon Sancho and Jorginho ensured both teams played a draw.
“I was happy to coach the team. I saw a huge effort, we had so many ball recoveries and put the pressure high,” Tuchel said at his post-match press conference.
“We were brave and courageous, but they defended deep and then you need the first goal.
“If you don’t score, you always run a bit behind because you feel you’re the stronger team.
“We had two/three changes we maybe should’ve used, but in general, I like the way we played.”
Chelsea’s next Premier League game is against Watford on Wednesday.
