Chelsea boss Conte hails Hazard character after Man Utd attack

Published on: 18 March 2017

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has hailed the character of Eden Hazard.

Hazard kept his cool as he was given intense attention by Manchester United's defence during Chelsea's 1-0 win in the FA Cup on Monday night.

Discussing the Belgian's contribution, the manager said: "Eden is showing great football but also has great character and great personality in every game.

"He is growing a lot in this aspect. For him, it's fantastic. Not only for him, but also for the team.

"In the first 20-25 minutes (against United) I saw only this type of situation for him, and it was impossible for him to play football.

"I don't like this, and I always want to face a team who want to play football and to beat us playing football. That's important."
