Chelsea will progress to the competition’s knockout stage should they beat Maccabi Tel-Aviv in Israel in their next Champions League fixture on 24 November and Dynamo fail to beat Porto. When the negative moment arrived in the past the team feels it too much.

“To win after conceding with 10-15 minutes to go was important”. Jose Mourinho was ecstatic after the game and thanked the fans, saying he would “give them anything”, according to Independent.
The Kiev side were more dynamic after the interval and Dragović made amends for his first-half mistake by taking advantage of Chelsea’s weak defence; he equalised for Dynamo in the 77th minute. We are looking forward now to getting back to winning ways.
Mourinho said: “He is playing very well”.
Mourinho, who is in the worst period of two spells at Chelsea, compared the support favourably to his return in August 2013, when he was acclaimed by the partisan crowd. I knew it would be hard to score and they are good on the counter attack.
Chelsea’s Willian begins to celebrate after scoring his side’s second goal in their 2-1 victory in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
“I had the moment when I came back to the club and we played the first match at home to Hull City and the way the stadium welcomed me was incredible – but not comparable with this”, said the 52-year-old, who was sacked in 2007 before returning in 2013.
“Obviously I won’t be able to score goals every single game but I am going to try and keep doing my best”, he said. The defending champions are already 14 points off the pace in the Premier League after a terrible start to their title defence. It comes in a moment where you are asking for my “end”.
“It is quite unbelievable what they tried to say today”.
“It is a fantastic feeling”.
