After the game, Thomas Tuchel claimed that it was the team's responsibility to lose today as they were unable to score from the loads of chances they created.

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel: "It was our responsibility to lose today, we had enough chances. The performance was by far good enough to win the game. We did not score, conceded two cheap goals and it was a defeat in the end. We are lucky to escape today.

"We did not hit the target, the last touch was not precise enough. It was a very strong last half an hour and we had two big chances to score. We fought, tried everything but forgot to score."

On Cesar Azpilicueta red card: "I saw it and I don't see the difference from the first half from an Aston villa player."

On the Villa penalty: "Very, very soft. I saw no movement from the legs from Jorginho.

"A loss never feels good but tomorrow I will take a lot of satisfaction. We reached the objective and congratulations to everyone. We are still a young team, players fighting for their first trophies and now we arrive in Porto with full confidence
