Axed

Mata was axed from the Spain squad for their internationals last week but when asked if national team coach Vicente Del Bosque had been watching he said: "I don't know. I just try to improve with every Chelsea game I play. "I just wanted to do my best for my team and in this moment I am feeling really well. "I had another chance for a goal but Fernando (Torres) was in a better position than me to score. "But the most important thing for me was victory. Before the game we wanted to stay top of the league and we are still there."
