UCL: Dortmund’s goal was a mistake from us – Havertz speaks
Chelsea star Kai Havertz has reacted to their recent 1-0 loss to German club Borussia Dortmund in the UCL on Wednesday night.
Dortmund won the first leg thanks to a goal from Adeyemi and now have a slim chance ahead of the second leg against Chelsea on March 7.
Havertz described the match as frustrating, adding that Dortmund’s goal was a mistake on Chelsea’s part.
‘It’s frustrating to lose because I thought we played quite well,’ Havertz said when speaking post-match.
‘We came here to win the game, or at least draw, but in the end we have lost and it’s just really frustrating for us.
‘Their goal was a mistake from us and we knew that Adeyemi is a fast player, especially on counter-attacks. So that was disappointing.
‘We created plenty of chances and on another day, we could have scored a couple of goals and the tie would look so different.
‘I don’t think we should be too unhappy with our performance because we created the opportunities, but it’s just frustrating that we couldn’t take any of them. We have to look at that and try to improve on that front.”
