Jorginho's stellar penalty record 'was not normal' - Lampard backs Chelsea midfielder to regain confidence

Frank Lampard has backed Jorginho to regain his confidence after the midfielder missed another penalty on Wednesday night.

Jorginho saw his spot-kick bounce off the post in the first half of Chelsea's Champions League encounter with Krasnodar, his second penalty miss of the season.

The Italy international had only missed one penalty in his career prior to this season, but also failed to score from the spot against Liverpool earlier this campaign.
