Why Chelsea lost 2-1 to Wolves

It was another poor performance for the Blues as they suffered a 2-1 loss to Wolves on Sunday evening in the Premier League.

Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino in a post-match statement insisted that his side lost to Wolves because his players were not clinical in front of goal.

Pochettino watched as the Wolves won all three points off his side with two goals from Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty.

While Christopher Nkunku managed to score a goal for the Blues at Molineux, it was not enough to save Chelsea.

Speaking at his post-match press conference, Pochettino said: “Of course, we feel very disappointed.

“I think we deserve much more than we got but we cannot hide from the fact that in a competition as strong as the Premier League, if you are not clinical then you cannot complain [at the result].”

He added, “We created a lot of chances in the first half but did not score.

“In the second half, we conceded a few corners and then allowed Wolves to take the lead. They were more clinical and that is why the result is as it is.”

Chelsea are now at the 10th spot on the league table with 22 points from 18 games.
