The head coach of London "Chelsea," Enzo Maresca, praised the winger Alejandro Garnacho after their victory with a score of 1:0 against Lisbon's "Benfica" in an interview with TNT and commented on Andrey Santos' injury:

"A. Garnacho was very good in this match. Not only in his play with the ball but also in defense... the Argentine was very good in how he pressured the opponents.

In the final phase of the attack, he had a lot of freedom to play one-on-one when he decided to. Getting into the final phase of the attack is important because we scored a goal in just such a situation."

"Andrey Santos suffered an injury and will not play until the end of the international break.

London "Chelsea" club earned their first three points in the Champions League this season.
