Report

Directly from the start it was Atletico's game. Professional approach, creating chances and not giving any away. Chelsea couldn't handle the pressure and had to make use of a lot of fouls and three yellow cards. Atletico deservedly was 2-0 up at the break.

The second half saw both teams taking it a bit more easy. Atletico new it was group winner and Chelsea FC lacked the power. The match finished 2-0.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vanaf het begin van de wedstrijd was het duidelijk wie de betere ploeg was. Atletico Madrid nam professioneel het heft in handen en kreeg de beste kansen. Chelsea kon niet met de druk omgaan, maakte een aantal slippertjes en had drie gele kaarten nodig om de eerste helft door te komen. Atletico haalde met een dikverdiende 2-0 voorsprong het rustsignaal.

In de tweede helft leken beide teams het wel te geloven. Atletico deed het wat rustiger aan en Chelsea ontbrak het aan kracht om er nog wat van te maken.
Atletico pakte de verdiende zege en daarmee de groepswinst.

Morgen in de halve finale komen ze uit tegen Club Brugge.
