Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has explained his side's shock 2-0 defeat to Ipswich Town on Monday night.
Enzo Maresca believes his team created several good chances to defeat Ipswich Town but were wasteful.
Despite dominating possession, the Blues suffered a 2-0 defeat at Portman Road, with Liam Delap's penalty and Omari Hutchinson's second-half strike sealing the win for the hosts.
Maresca reflected on the match, telling BBC Sport:
"Strange game in terms of creating many chances and we could've scored many but they saved goals on the line or great saves from the keeper."

The Italian manager acknowledged areas for improvement, saying: "We could do many things better, defend better in some moments."
"We had chances with Joao and Noni so it's not about the striker. Sometimes you create chances and it doesn't go for you."
Maresca is choosing to focus on one game at a time, rather than looking at the bigger picture.
The Chelsea boss has gone to great lengths to shut down talks of a title challenge and he reiterated that at full time.
"We focus game by game so we are not focused on the title race or those things."
Up next for the Blues is a trip to Selhurst Park to face a rejuvenated Crystal Palace.
