Thibaut Courtois: 'Draw with Liverpool not a bad result'

Thibaut Courtois believes that Chelsea's 1-1 draw with Liverpool in the League Cup semi-finals has given the team a good chance of reaching the final.

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has insisted that Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Liverpool in the League Cup semi-finals is 'not a bad result' for the team.

The two-legged tie remains in the balance after Raheem Sterling's second-half strike cancelled out Eden Hazard's opener at Anfield last night.

However, Courtois believes that Chelsea's dominance at Stamford Bridge will give the Blues a good chance of reaching the final when the sides meet again on January 27.

"We like to play these games," the Belgian told the club's official website. "It was difficult to get a better result but the draw is not bad.

"With the chances they had in the second half and they hit the post, we have to be happy with the result. Now we have to finish it at home, where we are strong, in front of our own fans. The game will be like a final. We can win there and go to Wembley."

Chelsea are back in action on Saturday when they host Bradford City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
