Chelsea secured their spot in the last-16 of the Champions League as they edged past Austrian champions Red Bull Salzburg.
Mateo Kovacic opened the scoring for the Blues mid-way through the first-half with a stunning first-time effort. A couple of sumptuous moves could have seen the Londoners double their lead but they could not find another route past Salzburg keeper Philipp Köhn.
That goalkeeping stubborness was just the tonic that Salzburg needed as just a few minutes into the second-half, they equalised against the run of play through Junio Adamu. Kai Havertz thundered home a stunning second for the Blues midway through the second half as the visitors reclaimed the lead and booked their spot in the next round.
