We have been electric today …. 2-0 up at HT is just reward … Kovacic, Werner , CHO stood out for me
Despite Kepa’s good showing in the last game, i was a bit surprised at his start, as Mendy hasn’t done much wrong. But he hasnt been tested today.
Good save from Kepa … we have wasted a few chances … a 3rd will be nice to finish of the game
2-0 & into 4th … what a turnaround under Tuchel
