Chelsea boss Mourinho happy Sydney players kicked Hazard

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho was happy for Sydney FC midfielder Terry Antonis to take lumps out of his star Eden Hazard.

Chelsea ended their campaign with a 1-0 win in Sydney yesterday.

"The guy that kicked Hazard three times in 10 minutes impressed me, because I like that," Mourinho said.

"I like it because there are no friendlies, I don't like the word friendly, a match is a match.

"Of course some matches are more important than others, but a match is a match."
