Chelsea defender, Antonio Rudiger, has revealed that manager Maurizio Sarri's "terrifying" postmatch reaction to the midweek defeat at Wolves, inspired his players to beat Manchester City on Saturday.
N'Golo Kante and David Luiz scored at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea inflicted City's first Premier League defeat of the season.
Sarri's men put up a more spirited performance, than the one that saw them lose 2-1 to at Molineux, after which made the Italian accuse some of having "too much confidence."
"After the Wolves game, he was terrifying.
"He was going crazy. But that was OK, because we shouldn't have lost this match.
"The day after, he was very calm and clear-minded. He spoke with us and made it clear that we have to believe in ourselves. He wanted us to go into the City game looking for the win," Rudiger told ESPN.
