Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has said that he has no regrets after being sent off for his wild celebration following his side’s 2-1 victory over Liverpool. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the emotion of the match meant that his dismissal was more than worth it, so he has decided not to be self-critical.
Maresca added that his celebration was simply an instinctive reaction to a well-deserved winner.
His words, “It was a huge emotion (against Liverpool). It’s my second season at Chelsea and it was the first time we won at home in the last minute.
The sending-off? (I’ve said) many times, football is passion, instinct. I probably didn’t have time to think. It was an instinctive reaction, but I think it was worth it.
It’s one of the most important clubs in the world.
In the last three or four years, for various reasons, it (Chelsea) has struggled. Having brought the club back to a great level is a great satisfaction.
When I signed for Chelsea, I felt a bit of pressure of being the only Italian not to win here, but fortunately, that hasn’t been the case.”
WOW.
Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.
The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.
On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.
The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
