Chelsea’s midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Obi-Mikel-c18882 has gone on to express his disappointment with the Blues switching off in their game against Juventus, which allowed the Italians to get back in the match and draw it at the end of the game.
The Blues went on to win the Champions League last season, and they kicked off their title defence against Juventus.
The match kicked off with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oscar-c28720 went on to score two goals in the span of a few minutes.
That lead gave the Blues a much needed push as they looked to try and wrap up the game, while securing all three points from it.
However, with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arturo-Vidal-c6760 scoring a goal soon after, the Italians were given some much needed hope, as they looked to try and get something out of the match.
Late on in the game, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-Quagliarella-c13194 went on to score the equaliser, which resulted in the game ending as a two all draw, and with both the teams sharing the points at the end of the match.
Mikel, who went on to lose the ball in the build up to the equalising goal scored by Juventus, went on to admit that the Blues turned off in the game and that is what cost them all three points in the match.
"I think we switched off. It was a pass to Eden [Hazard] that didn't quite get there and then we just switched off.”
"We should have dealt with it properly."
However, Mikel feels the team started things off rather well, and that it was only a matter of them maintaining that early pressure, which would have helped secure the win for the team.
"I think we started the game well, we scored two goals and we had more possession of the game. We had the game under control but they scored one goal.”
"We came out in the second half trying to do something in the way that we started the first half but their second goal was a cheap goal to give away."
The Blues will now need to work on their ability to maintain their form, as they look to try and take maximum points from their upcoming games.
