What Maresca said
Maresca praised his players’ resilience in regaining the lead after conceding a late first-half equaliser.
He highlighted the team’s improved response after recent matches where they had relinquished early leads.
“The performance until 40 minutes was very good, then the last five minutes we struggled. They scored a goal and we lost a bit of confidence, which was something that has happened a few times this season,” Maresca told BBC.
He continued, “We need to learn to manage these situations better. In the second half, we started well and scored the goals. Overall I think we deserved to win the game.
“We reacted well in the second half. After five games without a win it is not easy to do that. So it was important to win the game.”
The victory lifts Chelsea to fourth place on the table with 40 points, four points behind Nottingham Forest in third.
Wow Chelsea is really doing good I wish they can be able to carry the premier league
