Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has reacted to his side’s 2-2 draw vs Wolves on Saturday in the EPL.

A brace from Romelu Lukaku saw the Blues take the lead and control of the match before the visitors hit back through Trincao and a 97th-minute equaliser from Conor Coady as they ended up sharing points.

Tuchel was left frustrated with the way Blues allowed victory to slip from their grasp and admitted that the result did feel more like a loss when commenting post-match.

‘Of course,’ Tuchel assessed when asked whether this result felt like a defeat.

‘I thought we started both halves well with an offensive 5-3-2. We knew about the risks and we needed to be disciplined. We showed discipline over most moments of the first half but in some situations we touch too much risk

‘That cost us some dangerous moments at the end of the first half and we were unlucky not to score. We reminded the players at half time to stick to the plan.

‘I was very happy with the way we started the second half, we created chances and enough situations to be in front but we were 2-0 up and then we took too much risk.

‘We invited the counter-attacks and big chances. Once you do this you lose confidence and invite the opponent to smell that something is possible when it is unnecessary.
