Tuchel: There have been 7 positive cases in the team, and we are disappointed and angry that the application for an extension was rejected

Live Bar December 19, Tuchel was interviewed before the game, revealing that there are now 7 positive cases of covid-19 in the Chelsea team.

Tuchel said: "That's the case and we think we have good reasons for being healthy (applying for a match extension)." We have 7 positive cases on our team, and the team has been riding, meeting, and dining together, and I don't think it's going to stop now. We applied for an extension of the game in hopes of controlling the situation, but the authorities refused. It's hard to understand that we care about the health of our players and end up being forced to risk letting injured players play.

"From a medical point of view, I am also worried, we have been tested for four consecutive days, if we still take the bus and have meetings together, how will this situation stop? We were disappointed and a little angry. ”
