Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, who secured a resounding 3-0 victory against Barcelona in the Champions League, shared his thoughts after the match. According to him, the result was not a coincidence - the team's preparation, discipline, and enthusiasm for the game fully contributed to it.
In the first half of the match, Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo was sent off after a high-paced episode. However, Marázquez did not assess this situation as a factor that had a significant impact on the fate of the game:
"We played excellently in the 11 versus 11 situation. "Barca" feels very comfortable with possession, but without the ball they are not very reliable. We felt this and found their empty zones," Maresca said.
The coach emphasized that Chelsea not only scored three goals, but at least three more were disallowed due to VAR. In addition, a number of other dangerous situations have been created.
"After the game, I told the players: the most important aspect now is recovery. Starting Friday, all attention should be focused on Arsenal. It's important to maintain momentum, because recovery after a victory is always easy," the coach added.
Maresca's statement demonstrates that Chelsea's playing style is constantly evolving, and maintaining internal rhythm is a crucial factor for continued success. The London club is now preparing for another major Premier League challenge - the derby against Arsenal.
