Cjelsea boss Graham Potter praised his players after their Champions League defeat at Borussia Dortmund on Wednsday night.
Chelsea lost the first-leg of this round of 16 tie 1-0 courtesy of a brilliant individual goal from Karim Adeyemi.
Potter later said: “It was a very strong performance, especially the second half. We created a lot of chances and efforts on goal but I am disappointed with the goal we conceded. I thought we were the dominant team in the second half. It is half-time in the tie, we have to regroup.
“It is a counter-attack from a corner, we were close to scoring ourselves. They broke on us. It is disappointing, we need to do better. Apart from that, we were really, really good, we just have to score.
“I thought we had good attacking movements, clarity in terms of how we wanted to attack and got into right areas. The attitude was really positive as well.
“You can see the supporters’ reaction, they were really positive, they can see the performance of the team, they gave us a fantastic reception. We are a team in progress, we know there are a lot of positive things there.
“You always need a bit of luck but you can’t wait around for luck, you have to keep working. The boys have been fantastic with their work but we are still suffering at the moment. But we will keep on working.”
