Chelsea boss Mourinho praises cool Hazard for injury-time penalty

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho praised Eden Hazard for his injury-time spotkick which earned the hosts a 2-2 draw with West Bromwich Albion.

Hazard had been recalled to the side after being left out of the midweek Champions League win over Schalke for disciplinary reasons.

Mourinho praised the calmness of Hazard to cap a positive end to what had been a difficult week.

"Penalties are easy to score in training sessions - I score - as they are when you are winning 3-0 or 4-0, but this was a difficult one and the kid was very calm," he said.
