Chelsea defender Disasi finds Nkunku positive in Wolves defeat

Chelsea defender Axel Disasi was happy for Christopher Nkunku after he scored a first goal for the club in defeat at Wolves.

Nkunku struck in the 2-1 loss at Molineux.

Disasi told the club's website: "We are very frustrated and angry after the game.

"We didn't win and we feel we deserved more when you see the game.

"We did good things and bad things. We have to address the mistakes, and when we have the possibility to score, we have to score. We have to see where we can improve and keep going.

"Every training and every game we are growing and learning, we have a lot of new players, but it's not an excuse. The quality is here.

"I know the feeling now is bad because we didn't succeed, but we have to stay together. We have to take a rest now because we have a lot of games coming."

On Nkunku, Disasi added: "Everyone knows the quality of Christo. He came back from a long injury, and I'm happy for him and the team he scored.

"He will help us for sure because he has a lot of quality."
