Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino expressed his disappointment after his team’s 1-0 loss to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final. Despite dominating the game, Chelsea’s inability to convert their chances ultimately cost them the match.

Nicolas Jackson, in particular, was guilty of squandering multiple opportunities in front of goal. The defeat means that Chelsea will end the season without any silverware.

Speaking to BBC One, Pochettino lamented his team’s lack of clinical finishing, stating, “We had many chances but we did not score. It is not about deserving to win, it is about being clinical, and we were not today.”

When asked about how to address the issue of missed chances, Pochettino pointed out that Chelsea had scored six goals in their previous match, but were unable to find the back of the net against Manchester City despite having more clear-cut opportunities.

The defeat serves as a reminder of the importance of converting chances in football, and Pochettino will be looking to address this issue in order to improve Chelsea’s performance in future matches.
