Brief: Chelsea 0 – Copenhagen 0

A scoreless draw was enough to see us into Friday's Champions League hat!

Chelsea went into this Champions League knock out game having only to draw to get them through to the next round. A convincing 2-0 away win in Copenhagen saw tonight’s game appear to be a formality and, so it proved.

Despite 16 goal attempts to 5 (12-2 on target) Chelsea once against failed to convert these chances and ended the game with a 0-0 scoreline, enough to put us through but disappointing none the less to see a goalless draw (especially when you consider the price for a ticket tonight!)

So, tougher opposition awaits in Friday’s draw and I have this strange feeling we will draw Manchester United or Tottenham? (I would like ‘Shalke 04’ though, great trip the last time we were there and a fantastic stadium)

Next up, Man City at home on Sunday for a chance to go back up into third position in the Premier League!
