Maresca: The red card changed the trend of the game. It is very important for young players to seize the opportunity.

October 23rd, in the third round of the UEFA Champions League, Chelsea defeated ten-man Ajax 5-1. In an interview with UEFA's official website after the game, Blues coach Maresca said he was very satisfied with the game.

Maresca said this: "I am very satisfied with this game. We started well and the red card changed the trend of the game. We played quite well, scored five goals, and could have scored more."

"It is always difficult to play with ten men, which we have experienced this season. It's very good to see some young players who haven't had many opportunities perform well. When you give them opportunities and they take them, it's very important. "We want to take it one game at a time and in 48 hours we have another difficult game against Sunderland."
