Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was extremely pleased after the victory over Brentford and placement in the semifinals of the EFL Cup.
Despite a large number of absent players (as many as 10), “The Blues” managed to celebrate on the road (2:0), and the teenagers Soonsup-Bell, Simons and Vale also carried a big burden.
“All three were good, although they did not train all Sunday, because our school was closed. We managed to join them to the first team the last two days before the match. They listened carefully to everything we told them and in the end, they did their job. The other players supported them. That is why one big bravo for everyone, I am very happy.”
Goalkeeper Kepa also had a good role, which Tuchel also praised.
“This result is great when we know everything that happened behind the scenes. Kepa also did a great job “, added Tomas Tuchel.
