On the evening of October 6th, Chelsea drew 1-1 with Nottingham Forest in the seventh round of the Premier League. In this match, the Blues received six yellow cards throughout the game and will face a fine of 50,000 pounds. Maresca expressed that he likes how the team fights.
It is worth noting that this is the second time this season that Chelsea has received six yellow cards in a league match. According to regulations, as a repeat offender, this fine is double the 25,000 pounds they paid last month for receiving six or more yellow cards in an away match against Bournemouth. Additionally, Cucurella and Fofana are suspended for one match (the next match against Liverpool) as they are the first players this season to receive five yellow cards.
However, head coach Maresca still defended the spirit shown by the team, saying: “I like how the team fights, I like how they come together as a team in these situations, I don’t see any problem.”
