FULL TIME Maccabi Tel Aviv 0-4 Chelsea

That’s that. Chelsea weren’t always convincing, but pulled away in the closing quarter to register an ultimately impressive scoreline. Meanwhile a 2-0 victory for Dynamo Kyiv at Porto means Jose Mourinho’s side only need a point in their final game against the Portuguese at Stamford Bridge to win the group. That should be quite a clash, Mourinho’s former allegiances aside, because Porto will require a win to guarantee their own progress. Maccabi, still pointless, are of course out - but all of the other teams in Group G can make it through. It should be quite a ride in a fortnight’s time

90 min: Azulay is immediately in the thick of it, his long-range shot deflected out on the left for a corner. From the set piece, Carlos Garcia rises and whistles a header inches wide left. The hosts could easily have had a goal or two this evening.
88 min: Pedro goes for the bottom left again, after dancing with style down the inside-right channel and making it into the area. So close, bothering the paint on the outside of the left-hand post. Another brilliant effort.
86 min: Pedro cuts in from the right and curls a superb low shot inches wide of the left-hand post. Rajkovic might have had that covered were it on target, but it would have been a close-run thing.
84 min: The excellent Baba finds more space down the left, but his low cross can’t find a slightly flat-footed Diego Costa. Then Fabregas goes chasing after a loose ball down the right. He flies in studs up on Ben Harush, and catches his man late. He’s lucky to be only seeing yellow. What a pointless lunge at this stage, with the match won. Despite the scoreline, Chelsea don’t seem a particularly happy collective. A lot of frowning, and a slight edge in the air.
83 min: Igiebor catches Fabregas, who has adroitly turned him in the centre circle. He’s lucky to escape a booking.
