Nevertheless Rudiger did receive some praise for his actions.

With Chelsea in sixth place in the Premier League having lost three of their last four top flight fixtures, Sarri's future has been called into question.
Chelsea are in Europa League action against Malmo next week but they have some tough games on the horizon, including Manchester United in the FA Cup, Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final and Tottenham in the Premier League.
