Cech insists Chelsea can draw positives from Man Utd defeat

Petr Cech insists Chelsea can be take plenty of positives from their defeat at Manchester United.

Cech feels they can take consolation from the second half.

"You can never say it is fair or not, but they scored three goals and we scored one. The reflection of the day is there," the 29-year-old told chelseafc.com. "They were efficient in terms of scoring goals and that's why they won, [but] we can be pleased with our reaction in the second half."

It was a second period in which Fernando Torres scored once and should have had at least one more, while Branislav Ivanovic also went close twice from headers.

"Three-nil down is never easy, but we came back, scored a goal and created chances and 3-2 would have been an exciting end of the game but it tells a story that we didn't take our chances," Cech lamented.
