Closed NK Maribor 1-1 Chelsea

[Igi26 346]

This game was always gonna end in a draw. Maribor is hard place to go even though we could have easily won this with a bit less choking. A win would not have automatically qualified us anyway so why play the first team in fuckin slovakia?

I'm gonna fucking slap you mate if you say Slovakia one more time. You are from fucking Germany, you are not from USA.

Mou should "talk" to them seriously.

So not good? Quick recap please? I'm in Detroit[emoji35]

The match wasn't shown live in the US, it will be shown on FS1 later. We had our chances & their gk played good. Also they scored on a brilliant goal.

Uefa+Chelsea, not a happy marriage as we know. Diego's goal should've counted, Oscar deserved a penalty.

Hazard is our star, unstoppable again. He was clearly frustated after that big miss, so missed the penalty because of his emotions. Hazard is now fired up for the Livpool game, so that's the only positive thing here. Let him sign the contract ASAP!

Mourinho, is he setting a record time of using all his subs without injuries?

Cesc should play mainly as the #10 who can drop deep to get the ball because he is too slow for the pivot.

Matic, such a relief to have him. World class player in his position, untouchable.

Not sure what to say about Schurrle, Salah should get some chances now.

Zouma had a good game I think, did he make any mistakes?

Oscar and Diego were good, changed the game.

Motm: Matic.

[darrus 422]

Was about time for Hazard to miss a pen for once, glad it happened in a fairly irrelevant game.

We were not great, but Costa's goal should have been allowed.

Anyway, Sporting was of a great help today

So we need 1 point from Germany to secure play-off place, and a win gets us the first place, Is my math right?

I heard Hazard missed a penalty? Wtf. I'll watch it later then.

[chelseafc9010 224]

I knew he would miss I don't know why I just did :/ Such a a shame he couldn't finish, he was incredible. Also when we he won the penalty, he could of kept running and shot himself, needs to do that more but incredible.

Come guys, a draw is a good result. Other teams dream to draw against a team that has Ronaldo,Bale,James,Benzema,Modric,Ramos and many other star players in their team.

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

One of those nights really. Feel sorry for Eden - guy's a fucking joy to watch but that final touch let him down tonight. Him and Matic were the best on the pitch. And Oscar and Diego looked sharp too.

Scouse Land next Eden on the scoresheet. Gonna be a great game I can feel it.

''Play the kids''

Shouldn't have rested Salah for this one....

[dUMB 189]

Mou should "talk" to them seriously.

Mou should've been patient with his starting line up. He should clear his head before doing some stupid decisions.

[Liquidator 5,176]

Should'nt have rested Salah for this one....

it is OK, he'll be on fire on Saturday. Not even a fully rested Dejan Lovren will be able to stop him

[The Chels 2,502]

Really good in the last 30 minutes and unlucky not to get the winner. Hazard was a due a penalty miss and it's much better that it was in this one than vs. QPR or another more important match. They should have gone 2-0 up though but they missed a sitter.

[edetarod 2,155]

it's not easy beating these sides away, their fans get behind the team massively and they raise their game and play without fear cause they have nothing to lose

[MichaelDance 552]

Brilliant start, brilliant at the end, worst we've played all season in the middle.

I fucking KNEW Hazard was gonna miss that. Just knew it. He was unstoppable in open play but just couldn't finish to save his life today.

Roll on Liverpool. José will certainly light a fire of unheard of proportions after that shocking display. We may not see Andre again for a while.

To be honest I thought he'd get it in, I thought NK Maribor would have watched our matches, Hazard normally goes left... so going right should have tricked them. But it didn't

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

when you play the first team in corny away matches you can only lose. Even when you win the match the important players are exhausted for one of the most difficult away games of the season. On the other hand even a youth team could have played for a draw here.

[Heisenberg 1,824]

Winning at Anfield and the November-crisis will definetly be forgotten, excited as hell !

[LAM09 7,056]

Our starting eleven needs a shake up. I think some of the decisions by Mourinho also contributed to our poor showing, but at the end of the day, we were very poor.

Well every side still has a chance in our group, but you have to like our chances. A win at home vs Sporting will seal the deal, but like Schwarzer was saying after the match, Jose will want to win in Germany. Sorta like Julius Cesar.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

We deserved to win. Draw isn't a bad result but when you work that hard and still fail to accomplish your objective, it def has a negative effect. I'm curious about the weekend match now, because I want to see how the players react.

We work so hard with and without the ball, work so hard to create chances and we still don't put the ball in the back of the net, it is very very discouraging. Anfield is a pivotal match imo, it will show truly if we are champion calibre.
