Marcelo Bielsa gave his thoughts to the media after seeing his side gain a deserved point and clean sheet against Chelsea.

The match at Elland Road was entertaining despite being goalless, as both the Whites and the Blues looked to attack throughout.

“Evidently we played against a team that is superior to ours,” Bielsa explained.

“But in the second half especially and the first half less, we did what was necessary to play a balanced game.

“At the end of the game the chances that both teams had were similar.

“To be able to play a game like we did today, we had to make an enormous effort.

“We made a big, big, big effort so the game wouldn’t become unbalanced.

“It was with a slight predomination from us in the second half and a more clear dominance from them in the first half.

“But the offensive production of each team was similar and this is very difficult to achieve.

“If you take for example the last game they played before they played us, the first proper chance Chelsea conceded in that game was minute 90.

“So for us to have provoked five or six occasions on goal has its merit.”
