Jose Mourinho has said that Chelsea deserved at least a point from their match against Newcastle United in the Premier League this afternoon.
The league leaders lost their unbeaten record with a 2-1 defeat at St James' Park, despite playing the last 10 minutes against 10 men.
The manager told BBC Sport: "My team lost the way I like to lose which is to give everything and being unlucky. Only one team played to win. After the second goal the team lost their emotional balance. A point was the minimum we deserved.
"There could have been 20 minutes stoppage time but the situation would have been the same because things were happening outside the four lines that the referee couldn't control. The referee can't punish the ball boy who disappeared with the ball, the referee couldn't punish the people in the crowd who kept the ball. I'm not obsessed with records and statistics, that's not for me, I want to win the league."
If Manchester City win their match against Everton later, they can cut Chelsea's lead at the top of the table to three points.
