Antonio Conte: 'Chelsea gave good answer after two consecutive defeats'

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte hails his players for getting back to winning ways in the Premier League after two consecutive defeats with Saturday's 2-0 win at Hull City.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has praised his players for getting back to winning ways in the Premier League with a 2-0 win at Hull City.

The Blues had lost their previous two games in the league, against Liverpool and Arsenal respectively, but goals from Willian and Diego Costa downed the Tigers at the KCOM Stadium.

Conte told BBC Sport: "Every game is very tough in England and I am pleased with our performance because we scored two goals and got a clean sheet. I saw the right pressure and the right intensity from the players.

"We can improve and we must improve a lot and continue to work. After these two defeats it's not easy to work because two defeats for Chelsea are heavy defeats. But this was a good answer.

"I saw many of the players with great commitment, attitude and will to change the situation. I am pleased for them. We must follow this with work, work, work!"

Chelsea climb to sixth in the league table following Saturday's win.
