Chelsea boss Conte defends tactics for FA Cup final victory

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte defended his tactics for their FA Cup final triumph over Manchester United.

Conte, 48, insisted being defensive was the only way his side could have beaten United at Wembley.

He said, “A great team doesn't concede three goals or four goals against Watford.

“Today, it was the only way, to lift a trophy. If you want to change then we can change our idea but you must change many players. Understand?"
