Tuchel urges Chelsea's Werner to forget missed chance: 'It doesn't help to cry about it'

The Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel urged Timo Werner to "put his chin up" after the forward missed a good chance in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid. Christian Pulisic scored an important away goal for the Blues before Karim Benzema's volleyed equaliser, and the game finished 1-1. Werner also missed a golden chance during Chelsea's 1-0 win against West Ham last weekend. "It doesn't help to cry about it ... if he scores in the next game nobody will speak about it,” Tuchel said.
