Soaking about their injuries as shared by Chelsea’s official Twitter account, Frank Lampard said:
“About the injuries, Azpi and Pulisic have hamstring problems which need scans but won’t be fit for the next game,” the tweet confirmed.
“Pedro appears to have a dislocated shoulder but it’s not yet certain.”
However, Lampard also spoke about Chelsea’s defeat.
“We played very well for 10 or 15 minutes, scored a goal and created chances, were in control of the match,” Lampard added.
“But we can only blame ourselves after that in football terms.
‘We got less straightforward. We were slow on the ball, we played too many short passes. An FA Cup final needs better.
“We allowed Arsenal again into the match and from that point, it became very difficult. We can only blame ourselves for the result.”
