Chelsea team still advance to last 16 after Defeat Basel

Chelsea have met all requirements for the knockout stage of the Champions League yet, as the locals commended rambunctiously and the harsh smoke from their triumph flares floated over the turf, it was the glare worn by José Mourinho that summed up this night's work. An opportunity to win this gathering was left behind in Switzerland, Basel finishing a merited twofold over the Europa League holders, regardless of the fact that Schalke's goalless attract removed Bucharest edged Chelsea through in any case. Into the final moments, they lurched on in a stupor.

There was an affirmation from Mourinho ,the chelsea adminstrator in the outcome that he had failed in his determination, that weariness had undermined his collaborations' for all that Basel had  been great to legitimacy their win. There had been a lone change from Saturday's compelling triumph at West Ham United, but Chelsea FC had been unrecognisable. Had it not been for Petr Cech, they might have been covered by the break. 

As it seemed to be, Mohamed Salah's late objective, cut over the progressing goalkeeper as the guests' whole back-line tarried, was all that was obliged to affirm the hosts' prosperity. The champ might have been coldblooded on Cech, however Chelsea's aggregate could barely gripe.

It is the conflict that must irritate the administration. Where Chelsea FC administrator had been so predominant in overall at Upton Park, they just floated here obviously unable to animate themselves. They were without musicality and pizzazz going send, Uefa's detail affirming they had not gathered a solitary shot on focus on all night. Candid Lampard's scraped and redirected free-kick, which was gathered up by Ivan Ivanov, was about as close as they came, however the locals were never terrified.
