“We approached the match very well. I’m very happy with this. The last three matches we had big problems with the impact to the match,” Sarri said as stated by the club’s official website.
“This was really very good, especially because before the match we knew we were in the first position of our group after the result of BATE Borisov,” the 59-year-old manager added.
Besides securing the ticket for big-32, the match won’t be forgotten by one of The Blues young player, Callum Hudson-Odoi. He performed as the starter and played full time. Moreover, the 18-year-old player also scored one goal and one assist in this match.
Hudson Odoi’s impressive performance also attracts Sarri. But, the former Napoli manager asked Hudson-Odoi to improve his performance, especially in defending.
“I think that he played very well but the type of match was for his characteristics. They had ten men after seven minutes,” he continued.
“He has to improve in the offensive phase – he’s very good one against one, but he has to learn to move without the ball,” the Italian manager concluded.
