Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, has said he is not angry at his side’s performance, following their 1-0 defeat to Leicester City in the FA Cup final on Saturday.

The Blues lost the first of the two finals they will play this season, thanks to Youri Tielemans stunning finish.

Although Tuchel’s men dominated the game, they failed to make their dominance pay and saw a late goal ruled out by VAR.

“We are not angry at our performance or boys. We did enough to win it. We were not lucky enough to win.

“I was happy with the work rate and intensity. But our decision making was too hectic. We were too straight upfront, we tried to force it.

“I felt us too hectic, I think it could be something to do with our age. Hakim and Timo are not so young but we could improve there,” Tuchel told the media after the game.

Chelsea play Leicester again in the Premier League on Tuesday night.
