Chelsea Enzo Maresska’s head coach commented on a difficult victory over Benfika (1-0) in the second round of the Champions League. According to him, the team controlled the game in the first half, scored a goal and created several points, without missing serious threats.

“We would definitely need a victory, three points, for various reasons. I think that in the first half we controlled the game, we scored a goal, we created more moments and missed anything except two or three gears, which is normal.

And then in the second half, for various reasons, we stopped. I think we have some players on the field that, unfortunately, are not 100%ready, but they play because we have seven or eight players in the infirmary.

We now have six more games. We will see if we will be able to restore the players, it is very important to us. But now we are more focused on the Saturday game. Then we have an international break we are waiting for because players can return to us. You see, tonight Benoua Badiashil was very good. So if we can restore the players, this is what we need, “Maresska said.

In the third round of the Champions League Chelsea will take Ajax at home.
