<strong>STEAUA BUCURESTI 1-0 CHELSEA.</strong> Fair play to Steaua, they deserved their win in front of a superb set of supporters. Rusescu's penalty separates the sides but despite an utterly toothless display, Chelsea still have a decent chance of qualifying when they reconvene at Stamford Bridge.

Gardos nearly with an immediate impact, tiptoes all the way through, past a soft challenge from Luiz but rather than shoot looked for support. There was none.

Poor corner and Chelsea can breathe.

Steaua corner - the roar goes up. Love the corner adoration.

Four minutes of stoppage time. Not sure where our ref has got that from. Please no, not four more minutes.

Free-kick for Chelsea from the left wing. Terry challenges and leaves Szukala writhing on the ground. Tatarusanu collects.

Lampard strikes one but it's poor. Wide, timid, poor.

A dipping effort but it didn't dip enough and ended up over the crossbar.

Mistake from Bertrand allows Rapa the chance to fire an effort goalwards. Straight down Cech's throat though.

Cacophony of boos around the stadium indicates that Chelsea are keeping the ball. The deafening cheer indicates they've just lost it.
- 77'
Chelsea just seem all out of ideas - Steaua not showing quite as much ambition as they did in the first half. 1-0 certainly not the end of the world for the Blues. But a major step up is needed next week.

Mata takes a free-kick on the right wing. Straight into Tatarusanu's hands. Even the Spanish maestro hasn't been able to lift them since his introduction.
