Early this morning, Chelsea drew 2-2 with Karabakh in the Champions League. Maresca attended the press conference after the game.

About seven-man rotation

"Adjusting the lineup is always based on our belief that the current player configuration can perfectly execute the tactics. Today started smoothly and scored a goal, but then we lost two goals in a row. The first goal was scored by the opponent with ten players. These two goals could have been avoided. "

Regarding the reason for frequent rotation,

"I think I have explained it many times, the rotation is to allow Caicedo, Enzo, Gusteau and other players were rested, and they could not withstand the intensity of a three-day game. We tried to deal with it through rotation, and no one doubted it when we lost. "

Regarding Lavia's injury

"We feel sorry for him. He will not be able to stay healthy for a long time. The specific situation needs to be observed. It is too early to determine the type of injury. It is initially suspected to be a quadriceps problem."

Do you have higher expectations for the substitute players?

"This is related to the performance of the whole team. We actually started well and controlled the rhythm of the game, but four or five minutes after conceding the first goal, we conceded a second goal. The performance improved significantly in the second half, and every game is an opportunity for them to prove their worth."

Evaluating Karabakh's performance

"This is an excellent team. They performed well, and it is never easy to play here. "

Mistakes led to goals lost

"The winner today is the efficiency of the penalty area. Our goals were all due to low-level mistakes, and we lacked a fatal blow in the opponent's penalty area. This is the key difference."

Ganacho showed his influence, why did he not start?

"When arranging a starter, you can always be sure that the starters are ready to execute the tactics correctly. Ganaccio performed well in the second half and he is steadily improving."

Hartto's defensive performance

"Hatto started well like the whole team, but then started to make some mistakes, and we need to We need to improve to avoid this situation. "

Chelsea's problem of wasting the ball

"I don't think Chelsea has a problem with the ball. Karabakh's pressing is very good, and we also created a lot of opportunities. Although there is room for improvement, we did have a lot of wonderful cooperation."
