Jorginho scored the decisive penalty that gave Chelsea the victory having relinquished the role after missing two penalties this season.

Tuchel after the match revealed how third-choice keeper Willy Caballero’s penalty-saving expertise helped him to decide who should take penalties if they eventually gets awarded.

The German tactician stated that the guys took some penalties in the last nine days after training and Willy Caballero was pushing the penalty takers to be absolutely serious.

He noted that if you are not serious you don’t score against him, so you get a pretty good picture of who is capable and who is not.
