Champions League Group D: Atlético Madrid 2-2 Chelsea
Table of Contents
Chelsea played out a 2-2 draw with Atlético Madrid which was enough for them to progress to the knockout stages with two games to spare.
Atlético went ahead just after the hour when Sergio Agüero - who started the match on the bench - slammed an unstoppable volley from just inside the box as John Terry headed clear from Antonio López.
The Blues then came back strongly and Didier Drogba, who missed the first three games of Group D through suspension, popped up with two goals in the last eight minutes to turn the game in Chelsea's favour.
But there was still a late twist as Atlético netted an injury-time equaliser when Agüero curled home a wonderful free-kick from 25 yards out to seal a share of the spoils.
