“We were absolutely sure that we needed to play with a strong bond and with a genuine belief, and this is what we did.
“Minute after minute we could grab some ball possession we could win more and more second balls and initiate some dangerous counter attacks which gave us confidence, and from then on it was a tough match until the end.”
Tuchel also feels his Chelsea group are ‘strong’, insisting they packed together to stop City bagging an equaliser.
“We have a strong group who can really defend and defending is a huge part of football,” he said.
“They have a huge energy together and they can deliver under pressure. So this sets the level for us and once the celebrations are over and we have all digested this experience, it’s the moment to grow, to evolve, and to use it to become better.
