Chelsea entertained Legia Warszawa at Stamford Bridge earlier tonight as they hoped to defend their 3-0 lead from the first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League tie. The Blues made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the tenth minute when Tomas Pekhart scored from the penalty spot. However, Marc Cucurella equalised for Chelsea in the 33rd minute as the two teams went into the half-time break with a 1-1 scoreline.
Steve Kapuadi scored for the visitors in the 53rd minute. Enzo Maresca’s men failed to come up with a response and crashed to a 2-1 loss at home. However, the Blues secured qualification after winning the tie with an aggregate score of 4-2.
Let’s take a look at how each Chelsea player performed during the match against Legia Warszawa.
