Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to his side’s win against Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United.

Thomas Tuchel’s side have got the better of Leeds 3-2 at Stamford Bridge in London in the Premier League.

Antonio Rudiger – Leeds controversy

It was an entertaining game in which three penalties were awarded.

One was for Leeds, and two were for Chelsea.

Chelsea earned a spot kick deep into injury time.

Mateusz Klich was adjudged to have brought down Rudiger, and Italy international midfielder Jorginho made no mistake from the spot.

Antonio Rudiger’s reaction

There were wild scenes after the goal, with Rudiger squaring up to Leeds players.

The 28-year-old Germany international centre-back has now taken to Twitter to send a message after the controversial scenes.

Chelsea were arguably the better team at Stamford Bridge.

However, we have to say that if Leeds had picked up a point from the encounter, then it would not have been an unfair result at all.

The Rudiger penalty incident was controversial.

If that penalty had not been given, then the Premier League game in London would have finished in a draw.
