Cahill: You could see it was a foul from the moon
Swansea manager Francesco Guidolin says he apologised to Neil Taylor for taking him off in the 2-2 draw with Chelsea.
Costa’s acrobatics salvaged a point for Chelsea after two defensive blunders in a three-minute span nearly gifted Swansea a victory.
Two strikes from Diego Costa bookended a pair of quick goals for the Swans, and Cahill was not happy at all about the second. Swansea went on to take a lead but again at the dying moments Costa salvaged an equaliser for the Blues as the match ended 2-2 at the Liberty Stadium. Chelsea were further unnerved by the sight of the captain, John Terry, departing on crutches after sustaining an ankle injury in stoppage time. We are focused to be on fighting for the title.
“I think that defenders know him and sometimes try to provoke him”.
“We were dominating the game, leading 1-0, and in only two minutes we were losing”.
Nemanja Matic has nothing but praise for Chelsea manager Antonio Conte.
“They scored and I think the second was a clear foul on Gary”. The first one was a corner for us that we conceded a counter-attack to, and that can happen. But this is football and they scored two goals.
“But we have to be ready for the next game to forget this”.
In terms of our own centre-backs, it’ll be interesting to see whether Jurgen Klopp recalls Dejan Lovren to start alongside Joel Matip, or if he sticks with Lucas despite our own Brazilian’s mistake on Saturday…
The result leaves Manchester City as the only team with a 100 percent record after four games. “He works very hard for the team, he makes a lot of movement and he is a big part of our team”, the full-back told Chelsea’s official website.
“Chelsea deserved to win this game”. The referee made that decision and we had to move forward, to get in the game.
The draw lifts Swansea up to 13th in the Premier League table and Cork is hopeful they can continue improving over the coming weeks.
“We needed to get going after Hull and Leicester and not lose three on the bounce”.
The striker has a tendency to scare even the toughest of Premier League defenders yet his attempt on Tuesday wasn’t his best.
