ST PETERSBURG, Russia (Reuters) - Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel critcised his players for lack of effort and poor focus after Wednesday's 3-3 draw at Zenit St Petersburg denied them top spot in Champions League Group H.

Juventus snatched pole position from Chelsea's grasp, meaning the holders could now face Bayern Munich, among other teams, in the round of 16.

"We were forgetting why we were the better team, which was because the level of concentration and the level of physical investment was high enough to be the better team," Tuchel told reporters. "It's very easy – you have to have a higher level of sprints, a higher level of intensity, a higher concentration level. The basics need to be pushed to a higher level."
