David Luiz admits to tears after Chelsea's CWC defeat

David Luiz was emotional after Chelsea were beaten 1-0 by Corinthians in the Club World Cup final on Sunday.

The Blues, winners of last season's Champions League, became the first European title-holders to lose the cup since 2006 and Brazilian defender Luiz admits it was a hard loss to take.

"I cried. I wanted to win. I dreamt one day of playing in the Club World Cup final," he said.

"I play for a big club and big clubs win big games and big titles. You can cry one night. Tomorrow is another day."
