Chelsea has secured their place in the Europa Conference League after their recent victory. Manager Enzo Maresca had some positive words to say about one of his players, Tyrique George, despite the team's 2-1 loss to Servette on Thursday. The 18-year-old was initially on the bench but was brought into the game in the 62nd minute, replacing Noni Madueke. Maresca praised George's performance and noted his strong personality. He also mentioned another young player, Josh Acheampong, who was on the bench, and expressed the importance of building a team with academy players.
Maresca admitted that he was concerned about the second-leg match against Servette, knowing it could be a tricky game for his team. He believed that the opponents would view it as a significant game for them and would have more to lose than to gain. This made him anxious before and during the game. However, he was pleased with how the team started and their performance in the first 30 minutes, where they had several chances to score. But after conceding a goal, they lost a bit of confidence, and Maresca acknowledged that it was normal to suffer in such situations.
When asked about Madueke's recent call-up to the England squad, Maresca expressed his happiness and advised the young player to continue working hard. He also mentioned that he was pleased with the team's overall performance and their determination to do their best in the competition. Chelsea fans can now look forward to seeing their team compete in the Europa Conference League.
