Chelsea's Nemanja Matic: 'We always want to win, even if it's a friendly'

Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic insists that he and his teammates want to win every game, regardless of whether it's a friendly or not.

Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic has insisted that he and his teammates always have a winning mentality, regardless of their opposition.

Jose Mourinho's side visited Thailand and Australia during a post-season tour after they won the Premier League title by eight points.

On Tuesday, the team sealed a 1-0 win over A-League side Sydney FC.

"We are professional football players and we always like to win," Matic told the club's official website. "It doesn't matter if it's a friendly game or a league game.

"It was nice to see 80,000 people in the stadium so we enjoyed it and we won which is good for us. We had a great time here."

The Blues will begin preparations for the new season next month.
