Porter: Chelsea played better when the ball was lost, and I am satisfied with most of the performance of the game

02, 16th, Dortmund beat Chelsea 1-0 at the Signal Iduna Park Stadium at home.
Later Chelsea manager Graham Potter attended the press conference.

Do you like what you see (performance)?

Overall, we were happy with the performance for the most part in this game, it’s complicated to play away in the Champions League against a team at their best moment.
A good first half, (the shot) hit the bar.
And apart from that decisive error, we controlled the second half.

We deserved a goal and it’s just halfway through two legs, a tight game but we’re looking forward to the game at Stamford Bridge.

Lose the ball like this?

It was a bad goal for us and we have to do better.
We were working hard on offense and were the better team.
(We were pushing at the time and were the better team.)

So throwing in the towel in that way was disappointing.
The players know they can do better and we have to help them.
But we will focus on the positives because this performance is an improvement for us.

About Chilwell

Chilwell was kicked five minutes from the end, which is why he faltered a bit.
Porter also revealed that his plan was always to get him 60/70 minutes.

About the conflict between the two sides on the touchline

Cucurella wants to get the ball (that’s it), sometimes that happens and it disappears quickly.
