Chelsea are through to the Champions League quarter-final, but at moments it was certainly more nervous than they might have liked. Andreas Christensen was forced off with an injury in the first half, while Jorginho's handball gave Lille the opportunity to score from the spot. Burak Yilmaz dutifully obliged.
The Blues managed plenty of possession in the first period but little in the way of control and could not trouble Lille's final third with any real kind of threat. Jorginho managed to find a touch of class on the verge of half time to feed a pass to Christian Pulisic on the right side of the box. The American showed some great finishing ability to prompt a collective sigh of relief from Chelsea supporters the world over.
Lille kept going in the second period but Chelsea will able to find a little bit more success and Mason Mount's delicious cross from the left, found Cesar Azpilicueta. The Spaniard was able to guide the ball into the net with his knee on the six-yard line to make things feel secure and the west London side were able to secure their progression.
