'We were the better team' - Lampard proud of Chelsea 'character' despite Liverpool loss

The Blues may have suffered another defeat at Stamford Bridge, but the coach is happy with the way they fought back against Jurgen Klopp's side

Frank Lampard says he is happy with Chelsea's performance against Liverpool on Sunday, insisting they were the better team despite losing 2-1.

Liverpool went 2-0 up within 30 minutes against the hosts, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Roberto Firmino finding the net at Stamford Bridge.

Before Firmino's header, however, Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount had a goal disallowed for offside and the home side began to fight back in the second period, as N'Golo Kante fired past Adrian and Mount and Michy Batshuayi passed up chances to score.
