Poor start against Bayern Munich cost Chelsea: - Kante


N'Golo Kante believes Chelsea paid the price for a slow start in their 3-2 loss to Bayern Munich in the International Champions Cup.

Rafinha's opener and Thomas Muller's double put the German champions 3-0 up within the opening half an hour at the National Stadium in Singapore on Tuesday but the Blues did eventually manage to pull two goals back.

And Kante, a two-time Premier League winner, felt that his side's reaction to the early setback was commendable.

"It was a good game. We played against a good team. We tried to give our best but they played very well. They scored early in the game," he told Goal . "So it was a little bit difficult after 3-0 but we reacted very well and finished with 3-2.

"It was a good game. You have to keep working and keep improving the results."
The 26-year-old also extended his welcome to new signing Alvaro Morata. He added: "He is a good player. We are pleased to have him in the squad. We try to make him feel good and comfortable.

Defender Andreas Christensen, back from a loan spell at Borussia Monchengladbach, also echoed Kante's thoughts and bemoaned their poor start to the game.
"The second half was a little bit better from our side. We got a difficult start but I enjoyed it as it was good atmosphere," he said. "It’s just a game. We all had to enjoy it and work on our fitness and get some things in the squad.
