Chelsea manager Frank Lampard spoke about Abraham’s shot demanding the penalty kick in front of Crystal Palace, noting: “We have penalty kick number one.”
Chelsea beat Palace four to zero in the opening of the fourth round of the English Premier League.
A quad saw Jorginho score two penalties, with Abraham wanting to hit the second, but captain César Azpilicueta refused.
“Things are clear on penalty kicks,” Lampard said. “We have port number 1 for shots (Jorginho) and that was seen in the first shot.”
He added in his statements during the press conference, “Abraham has the illusion of the youth and since he did very well he wanted to take the penalty, but this is a mistake. We have port number 1 and in the end there was no problem.”
“That’s exactly what I wanted. In the first half we dominated a lot, but we lost the finishing touch, and in the second half we improved a lot and we managed to win very well,” he said, referring to the performance of his team.
He went on to say: “Chilwell gave a great performance. He scored, did, defended well and was always on the offensive side. He’s ready and we all saw what he did with Leicester City.”
Lampard touched on Hudson-Odoi and his future with the Blues, amid Bayern’s great desire to sign the player.
Lampard noted that “Odoi did a great performance today, specifically in the second half, and it is certainly within my plans with the team. The duo Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech are injured, and the former came back today for the first time, so we need many options and Iodoy demonstrated today what he can do. “
And Lampard responded to the question (Will Odoy stay at Chelsea?), Saying: “There is no definitive answer on that, but on Monday (end of Mercato) we will know the answer.”
He explained: “Anything can happen, but we have to be more calm because Odoy is a player for us so far and at this moment he is part of the team. We will wait to see what happens.”
A sixth straight win for the Blues over the Eagles in the London Derby, as Crystal Palace’s latest win dates back to October 2017.
Ben Chilwell, playing his first game for the Blues in the Premier League, scored and did, becoming the third player to score and make in his debut game with the team after Deco in 2008 and Álvaro Morata in 2017 for Chelsea. .
