    End of 2nd Half
    90+4'
    FT: Qarabag 0-4 Chelsea. The Blues cruise into the last 16 of the Champions League having dispatched Qarabag with ease. It wasn't a great game sadly with the red card spoiling the spectacle, but the referee's job isn't to ensure a spectacle. Willian and Hazard in particular stood out for the visitors.

    Nothing of note has happened in stoppage time yet.

    Three added minutes. Unnecessary given the scoreline.
    88'
    Morata gets through on goal but again can't get a goal, as he takes too long to shoot and Rzezniczak is able to put in a tackle.

    GOAL! Qarabag 0-4 Chelsea. Willian picks the ball up 35 yards from goal, turns, runs at the defence and then smashes the ball into the top corner. Great goal.
