Chelsea had to leave it late to take all three points at the Bet365 Stadium on Saturday afternoon. It was a very difficult game that was heading towards a draw before Gary Cahill’s late winner with just three minutes left to play.

David Luiz revealed how happy the team was with the victory.

“It was a typical Premier League game, we’re happy with the victory but it’s still a long way to win the title,” he said after the game. “Nobody makes it easy, always it is difficult to play here. They are a strong and physical team.

“We are happy with the game – it is always difficult but we played a good game, kept calm and had the opportunity to score the second goal. We had to believe. It was so difficult but it did so we are happy.”
