Sarri reacts to win over Huddersfield

Chelsea coach Maurizio Sarri has described his side's game against Huddersfield Town as a difficult one.


Chelsea defeated David Wagner's men at the Kirklees Stadium by three goals to nothing to begin their Premier League campaign on a high.

Goals from N'Golo Kante, Jorginho and Pedro gave Sarri his first competitive win as a Chelsea coach.

Speaking at a press conference after the game, he said, Football.London reports: "It was a really hard for us. We were not ready to their situation, for us it was a problem."

The Blues were not very convincing in the first half, but in the second half, they took control of the game and showed a glimpse of why Sarri was brought to take over from Antonio Conte.

This win is coming on the back of their 2-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Community Shield last Saturday.

Chelsea's next Premier League game will be against Unai Emery's Arsenal next Saturday.
