Enzo Maresca expressed delight after Chelsea's 1-0 win against Tottenham, highlighting their capacity to win 'ugly'. Enzo Fernandez's second-half goal secured the victory as Chelsea dominated much of the match. Despite Tottenham's disallowed goal by Pape Sarr due to a foul, Chelsea's resilience shone, especially in the final moments of the game. The win propelled Chelsea back into the Premier League's top four, crucial for Champions League qualification, which Maresca deemed important for the club's future alongside their ongoing stylistic evolution.
If we want to become an important team we need to win in a dirty way, ugly way and I'm quite happy.
At the same time, we try to achieve the result playing in the way we want to play.
The victory saw Chelsea leapfrog Manchester City and Newcastle United to move back into the Premier League's top four.
Champions League qualification will be massive for the club's future, but I also want to see my team continue their stylistic development.
