We got there in the end, huh. Jacob Steinberg was in Charlotte and his report has landed. Here it is. Congratulations to Chelsea – who maintain their 100 percent record against tonight’s opponents – commiserations to Benfica, and thanks to you for sticking with us into the wee small hours. Nighty night!

Enzo Maresca speaks to DAZN. “Very proud … the performance was top until 85 minutes … the start was a completely different game … when you are inside more than one hour it is not easy … but at 1-1 we continued to play … it was very difficult … we tried to keep them in the best way we could … we are in the last eight and we are happy … the free kick before the penalty was not a foul … it is better not to talk about the referee … we need to recover our energy and go again.”
