JAKARTA - Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, expressed his pride in his team being able to continue to look focused so that they qualified for the 2021/2022 Champions League quarter-finals. Chelsea qualified after winning 2-1 in the second leg of the last 16 of the Champions League.

Thanks to the victory at home to Lille, the club nicknamed the Blues won 4-1 on aggregate. This victory proves that the players remain focused and are not distracted by the problems that are befalling the club.

As is known, Chelsea's condition was volatile after the owner, Roman Abramovich, was sanctioned by the British government. All of Abramovic's assets, including Chelsea, were frozen so that the club's movement was limited.

"Everyone is calm at the club. The culture of the club is about football. Football is the priority at Chelsea, that's why we stay focused on what happens on the pitch," Tuchel was quoted as saying by Reuters.

Furthermore, Tuchel said Chelsea's victory over Lille was a big step in the midst of the club's chaos. Because this is proof that the Blues are a team that has a strong football mentality to deserve victory.

"We are again in the quarter-finals, it's a big step. We showed resilience and mentality. We overcame adversity, dug in, and got a deserved win. We got what it took."

The German manager also did not deny that his team's success on the field could not be separated from the support of all parties in the team. They continue to cultivate a strong football culture, so that nothing can shift the focus of players to perform optimally in every match.

"Everyone is pushing the first team to the limit, everyone is focused on football and football first," he said.

"This is the culture. This culture helps us now to focus when times are difficult and disturbing because they are already there. Of course, I feel a part of this, but I am also only a part," added the former Paris Saint-Germain coach.
