Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho set the draw with Paris Saint-Germain in the first eighth-finals of the Champions League in Paris as a positive result. He admitted that his team has shown the best of which is capable of, but the reason is the strong play of the opponents.
"It was a difficult game. In the first half PSG had left the initiative in our hands, waiting us to lose the ball in a dangerous area to counterattack. After the break, they rose up and started playing more directly. Constantly looking for Ibrahimovic and were very aggressive in the middle of field by pushing us deeper and deeper. I do not think that this result analyzed by football tips is decisive, but I think it is positive for us. At the "Bridge" we must play to win. The result, however, can be dangerous, especially if we decide to play for a draw in the second match" said Mourinho.
"Tonight many of our players had problems. Fabregas is sick and Oscar is injured. I decided to go with Cesc, as he knows very well how to hold the ball. We did not play very well in this game, but the blame for this is not only ours and we should congratulate the PSG, which has been very good, "added Mourinho.
