Thomas Tuchel was still heavily involved in Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup today, despite being absent through a positive Covid test.
It was announced just before kick-off that the German coach would miss the game due to isolating after contracting the virus, which could also rule him out of travelling to Abu Dhabi for the Club World Cup.
The Blues did just manage to get through the FA Cup fourth round without Tuchel, though it took an extra-time winner to do so.
