Mislav Orsic scored the only goal of the game as Dinamo Zagreb produced one of the shock football results of the weekend in the UEFA Champions League. Orsic ran from his own half and outpaced Wesley Fofana before slotting past Kepa in the goal in the 13th minute. The visitors were toothless in attack and never looked equalizing.

Managers Reaction
Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel said: “I’m angry with myself. I’m angry about our performance. It’s not aggressive enough on the ball, it’s not enough individually or enough as a team. Not a lot [of players are playing at the top of their game]. It’s obvious that we’re underperforming. It’s a lack of determination. A lack of hunger and intensity. You cannot expect to win games. We are clearly nowhere near where we want to be. I just know that I need time to digest it and find solutions. It’s a story of the last games – we start okay. But then we lack precision. We lack the smell of blood.”
“It’s clearly my job to analyze it. Clearly, we need to be much better. We are not happy with our results. We are not happy with our performances. I’m a bit surprised by this performance today. I didn’t see it coming. Obviously, I was in the wrong movie. I thought that the last game helped us, we showed a reaction against West Ham. Had good training sessions. I thought the team was prepared.”
