Chelsea vs Legia Warsaw LIVE!
It was another humiliating performance for Chelsea as the Blues were beaten 1-2 by Legia Warsaw at Stamford Bridge.
While the Blues will still progress on aggregate, it was a turgid showing endemic of the season. Warsaw came into the match three goals behind and sitting fifth in the Polish top flight, yet were every part the better side on Thursday night.
Former Tottenham man Tomas Pekhart opened the scoring from the spot after a typically clumsy Filip Jorgensen tackle before Steve Kapuadi added a second from a corner after the break. Sandwiched between the two goals was a Marc Cucurella tap-in.
Enzo Maresca had named a strong lineup as he looked to inject some confidence into his side ahead of this weekend’s trip to Fulham, and the gamble did not pay off as his side were roundly outplayed.

And not a moment too soon. Another abject showing from Chelsea, who lose at home to the fifth-best team in Poland.
They posed little threat throughout the night and defended dreadfully, lucky to get away with only two conceded.
Loud boos ring out around the ground as the whistle blows.

90mins: Four minutes are added.
Four minutes too many for the Chelsea players, staff, and fans, many of whom are already trudging to the exits.

90mins: Neto’s first involvement of note sees him bomb down the right wing and sting a ball low across the box, but it is blocked and cleared.
One would hope there is not too much extra time here. Chelsea will want this to be over with as soon as possible.

86mins: Another grim finish, this time for Warsaw. Chodyna takes a half volley and gets under it badly, firing his shot into the second tier of the stands.

84mins: Chelsea’s finishing this second half has been dreadful. They work another great chance as George plays an incisive diagonal ball to Madueke, but the England international shoots well over.
It is wasteful from the hosts again, who have nobody to blame but themselves for tonight’s result, a fresh humiliation.

79mins: Sancho whips a threatening cross into the box and Dewsbury-Hall gets on the end of it, but his header is almost perfectly vertical. and easily claimed by the keeper.
10 minutes now for Chelsea to rescue their honour in this tie. They are set to progress, but at what cost?

Starting to wonder whether we might actually see a team booed off here for reaching a European semi-final.

74mins: Oh, not again. Madueke tears down the wing and cuts a cross into the box for Tyrique George to finish, but the offside flag is up against Madueke.
Both men have been impressive since coming on. You would think it is a matter of time.
