Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic was delighted to score in their Champions League win at RB Salzburg.

Austrian-born Kovacic was able to do so in front of his parents on the night.

He said: "It's nice to score where I was born. My parents were here and my friends.

"We knew they would come out strongly in the second half but we reacted very well. It's important we go through and now we concentrate on the next game.

"I don't score many but this goal was a nice one. I always say it's important the team wins and less important who scores."
