Joe Cole has pinpointed two Chelsea new signings as the reason they fell to defeat against Borussia Dortmund. The game was decided by a moment of brilliance from Karim Adeyemi in the second half with Graham Potter's men having the better chances throughout.
It was a lack of cutting-edge and clinical finishing that cost the Blues in Germany with Joao Felix missing two guilt-edged opportunities before Kalidou Koulibaly's saved shot was cleared off the line. Despite a much improved showing it still leaves plenty to be done in the second leg.
With returning players coming back into the team both Reece James and Ben Chilwell were together at fullback whilst Hakim Ziyech and Kalidou Koulibaly played in place of Noni Madueke and Benoit Badiashile. Felix was the standout man again but couldn't add the final touch to some wonderful runs across the pitch.
