New Delhi, Sep 15 (NationPress) Moises Caicedo has expressed that the Chelsea team is eagerly anticipating their highly awaited return to the Champions League as they prepare to face Bayern Munich this Wednesday evening.
This match comes right after an intense west London derby against Brentford, which ended in a 2-2 draw. An injury-time equaliser prevented Caicedo’s remarkable strike from securing victory for the Blues. The Ecuadorian midfielder reflected on his performance and the match overall in a post-game discussion.
“I was fully aware of my intentions. My focus was solely on taking a shot at goal. I executed it, and it turned out to be a fantastic goal. I will continue to push myself to support the team,” said Caicedo.
“Brentford plays a challenging style of football, often putting the ball in the box, making it difficult for us. We tried our best, but sometimes things don’t go our way. The team's response was commendable; we needed to remain patient, which allowed us to come back into the game,” Caicedo added.
He also highlighted the significant contribution of substitute Cole Palmer, stating, ‘he transformed the game,’ and echoed the sentiment of the entire team in expressing their joy over his return.
Despite the disappointment of losing two crucial points late in the match, Caicedo is optimistic about their performance in Bavaria against the German titans.
“We are not satisfied with the draw, but our focus is now on Wednesday. We are disappointed with the result, yet we have another match coming up, and we are concentrating on that. Everyone is going to be prepared,” he affirmed.
Chelsea remains unbeaten this season, with two wins and two draws in their initial four league matches. The encounter at Allianz Arena against Bayern will serve as a true test for Enzo Maresca’s squad, followed by a visit to Old Trafford to face Manchester United.
