Chelsea vs Newcastle United: We deserved the win – Jorginho

Chelsea midfielder and Italy international Jorginho has reacted to the Blues’ win over Newcastle United on Sunday in the EPL.

Jorginho, who captained the Blues owing to Cesar Azpilicueta’s absence, stressed that the Blues deserved to win the match.

The Italian was instrumental to Chelsea’s victory as he created the goal assist, which Kai Havertz scored at the 89th minute.

‘I thought we believed until the end and that is our group, it is our mentality. That is what we have been showing all the time now, we keep focused, work hard and fight and push until the end. We deserved the win. It was a great result, atmosphere and great for the fans,’ the Italian said.

Jorginho also stressed that the Blues players remain determined despite the challenges off the pitch.

He said, ‘It is a good challenge to be honest because we’re all human and when there’s so much going around it is not easy. We try to isolate sometimes, we try to focus what we need to do because we are also professional as you could see we know our targets and we know what we’re here for. We’re fighting for that.’
