A late Eden Hazard spared Chelsea’s blushes as the Blues book their spot in the last 16.
Deposed European champions Chelsea had to settle for a home draw against Sparta Prague having won the away leg 1-0 after Eden Hazard’s late effort cancelled out David Lafata’s opener.
Chelsea captain John Terry said: “We’re delighted to go through, it wasn’t our best performance but we’re through and that’s all that matters.”
