Chelsea boss Tuchel on Cup triumph: Kepa keeps producing

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel was delighted with Kepa Arrizabalaga after another penalty shootout victory in the Carabao Cup against Southampton.

After the Cup tie finished 1-1, the match went to penalties.

Kepa made another stop in the shoot-out, his eighth in a Chelsea shirt, to help Chelsea prevail on penalties for the third time this season.

"He produces," said Tuchel.

"He is full of confidence. He has this experience now with us, and he has done it again and again.

"Just because you win a penalty shoot-out, does not mean you will do it again. Full credit to him. It's a special thing in football and we were again concentrated and calm. Kepa was a big part of that."
