Chelsea ace Jackson: My first ever hat-trick!

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson was floating after his hat-trick against Tottenham.

The Blues won 4-1 on Monday night, with Spurs having two players sent off and VAR denying five goals on the night.

Jackson said, "I am very happy and it has been a difficult time for everybody in the team. We are coming back really slowly and happy to have scored three goals. It's my first hat-trick, so I am happy to have done it with the biggest club in England and everywhere.

"I need to always improve and work harder. We continue working. Tottenham have an amazing stadium and amazing fans, so we needed to fight and win the game."

On Tottenham going down to nine men, he added: "It was really difficult as they continued to maintain their line. We have quality players to give us the ball and we won. We were dreaming about winning the big games and the confidence within the team is coming really slowly."
