Maurizio Sarri thinks Chelsea were “unlucky” to concede the first goal in their 1-1 draw against Wolves and think his side “deserved” to win.
Raul Jimenez’s breakaway goal after 56 minutes had looked like sealing victory for Wolves and ending Chelsea’s recent resurgence.
But Eden Hazard popped up in the second minute of stoppage time with his 13th Premier League goal of the season to earn a point on Chelsea’s 114th birthday.
“I think we made a lot of mistakes but we deserved to win,” Sarri told reporters. “We were a bit unlucky because we conceded with the first situation in our box… at the other end we need to improve in attack.
“We played at five touches, so if there are no spaces it’s very difficult to score against such a physical team… Hazard is a great player who can solve the situation in every moment, but he needs more movement without the ball.
“When you have to play only 10 matches, every match you don’t win is a missed opportunity. In this moment in the last six matches, we won four & drew the other two, so there’s a little consistency.”
