“He’s to be blame” – Leicester City boss reveals who to blame after losing 2-1 to Chelsea
Just after the international break, Chelsea defeated Leicester City 2-1.
Chelsea should have won this game by a wide margin, but they wasted a lot of opportunities.
Steve Cooper, manager of Leicester City, has voiced his displeasure with the officiating calls made during his team’s loss against Chelsea.
Cooper claims his side had ‘terrible luck’ with the officials.
Speaking to TNT Sports after the match, Cooper said: “The big moment is the first penalty [not given], it’s clear what happened there.”
Cooper also slammed the referee for initially failing to award his side a penalty.
“You see how onside he was. That was the story of the officials’ game,” he said.
Cooper also claimed that Chelsea shouldn’t have scored in the first half.
“We gave away a poor goal. It should have been 0-0,” he said.
He then added: “Defensively we were generally OK.
“We need to be showing good courage and belief. If we do that we can create chances and be a threat.”
