Chelsea 1-1 Atletico. Blues fail to seal the top spot in UCL group with a home draw as Atletico drop into Europa League.
Antonio Conte's side have already guaranteed a place in the last 16 of the competition, but could be beaten to top spot by Roma if they drop points in their final group game.
6: CLOSE! Not promising from Chelsea at the back. The ball pinballs around the edge of the box, it falls to Torres with his back to goal, but his shot is deflected just over the bar via the foot of Azpilicueta.
17: CLOSE! Nearly a fantastic opener for Morata. Christensen plays it central to Hazard, who dummies it for Morata with his back to goal.
38: SAVE! What a save by Jan Oblak. Zappacosta has it on the edge on the right, looks for the near corner, it's deflected and looks to be nestling in the bottom corner...
HALF TIME:
Chelsea have had the better of the chances, and would be ahead but for Jan Oblak, but neither side has really stepped into second gear as yet.
It's been a dramatic start to the second half, and Atleti are ahead! It's a corner from the right, outswinging and flicked on by Torres at the near post.
It's a lovely flick on, plum on the head of Niguez at the far post unmarked, and he makes no mistake! Atleti still heading out at this stage, but hope if Qarabag can get one back.
Oh so unlucky for Atleti and Savic. A corner is cleared to Hazard at the far post, and he strikes a cross-shot across the face of goal.
It hits the boot of Savic, and flies past Oblak from six yards! Chelsea back in this and need one more to go top!
82: Chelsea change now. Morata geta a big ovation despite an indifferent performance and on comes Michy Batshuayi.
