Mikel rues "cheap" Juventus goal

Chelsea's John-Obi Mikel has expressed his frustration at his team throwing away a two-goal lead against Juventus in the Champions League this evening.

The Nigerian midfielder said in the wake of the 2-2 draw that his side had the better of the possession, but allowed Fabio Quagliarella to score a "cheap" equaliser. "I think we started the game well. We scored two goals, then had more possession and had the game under control. The second goal was so cheap to give away," he said.

A first-half brace by Oscar on his competition debut put the Blues 2-0 up inside 33 minutes, however the Old Lady struck back with goals from Arturo Vidal and Quagliarella.
