Chelsea striker Werner: Fun to play in front of Blues fans

Chelsea striker Timo Werner was delighted to play in front of Blues fans for victory over Leicester City.

Werner was happy after the 2-1 win against the Foxes on Tuesday night.

He said, "The first half was the mirror of this whole season for me. It seems to be a goal, but in the end no. But when you're young and soon to play in the Champions League final, that's not a problem.

"It's good that there were fans at the stadium. We missed them very much. Today there were only 8000 people in the stadium, but they were shouting very loudly.

"It became much more fun to play, you saw it on the field."
