Tuchel: I managed to catch up with the race at the last minute, and the championship was dedicated to club owner Abu

According to Sky Sports, Chelsea manager Tuchel was unable to attend the scene before the Club World Cup final due to the new crown epidemic, fortunately, he finally caught up with the Blues' victory over Palmeiras and lifted the championship trophy with the team.

In the match, Lukaku's header in the 55th minute gave Chelsea the lead, and nine minutes later, Palmeiras' Vega equalised with a penalty and the two teams finally went into extra time.

In the 113th minute, Azpilicueta's shot was interfered with by Luanne's hand inside the penalty area and Chelsea won the penalty. Havertz scored a free throw to help Chelsea win the title.

Tuchel said: "I almost didn't have a chance, and when the time passed a little bit, we were afraid that we wouldn't be able to catch the final opportunity. I'm so happy that I ended up catching this race. The last chance was for me to feel like the UAE on the morning of the race, but I came before that. ”

"There were several times when I drove to the airport and had to drive back because my COVID-19 test was still not negative."

"In the end we made it and I arrived in Abu Dhabi at 8:15 last night and had dinner. I had missed the last training session after I met the team, so I could only participate in today's match meeting. Watching the semi-finals in front of the screen feels terrible, and as a coach you want to stand on the sidelines and direct the game. I'm happy that all our efforts went well, everyone supported the team and our efforts totally deserved the result. ”

"I have one who specializes in studying tactical game signals and watching the game remotely on another big screen. I would talk to the assistant coach at halftime. ”

'We also used this model in the FA Cup, but I don't talk to the assistant coach all the time, I talk about once every 10 to 15 minutes.

'It's weird, the coach's job involves the feeling of standing on the sidelines, so I need the idea of an assistant coach on the sidelines, and it's difficult to make decisions in the office alone.

Chelsea completed the club's Grand Slam after winning the Club World Cup, with Tuchel and Abu hugging on the pitch after the game, with Tuchel saying the victory was dedicated to him.

'We met on the pitch shortly after the game and he congratulated me and I said: 'I should congratulate you, this is for your title, this is your club, it's your dedication and passion that makes this a reality and I'm happy to be a part of it.'" So it's clear that this championship trophy is for him. ”

Mount suffered a serious injury to his ankle ligament during the game and was replaced just half an hour later, with Tuchel saying he could be injured for a while.

"In a fight with his opponent, his ankle was pressed under his body, his ligaments were seriously injured, and we have to see the result."

'He came straight up to me and said he wasn't feeling good, he was in pain and wasn't sure if he could keep playing, so we had to replace him.'
