Chelsea put one foot in the quarter finals of the Champions League on Tuesday night as they beat Lille 2-0 at Stamford Bridge in the first leg of their round of 16 tie.
Goals in each half from Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic were enough to secure the win against the reigning French champions, with the second leg set to be played in three weeks time.
Thomas Tuchel sparked controversy before the game when he dropped the out-of-sorts Romelu Lukaku to the bench, but it was a decision that was ultimately vindicated.
