Chelsea TV interviewed Thomas Tuchel after the game yesterday, and asked about what tactical changes he had made to get his team into the game more in the second half.
Tuchel denied it was tactical at all, and pointed out that his team had “lacked in duels” in the first half – meaning they needed to take players on more often, and win more 50 50s.
It sounds like he just gave them a bit of a boot at half time to get them firing, and it eventually paid off.
