Chelsea set an English RECORD as they become the first team to win five home games in a row with five clean sheets in European Cup history after their 2-0 win vs Lille in the Champions League last 16

The European champions remain the only club from London to win the Champions League and now Chelsea made more history.

The Blues are in the driving seat of their last-16 tie with Lille having won the first leg 2-0 on Tuesday night courtesy of goals from Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic.

And by keeping a clean sheet at Stamford Bridge, Thomas Tuchel's side became the first English team in either the Champions League or European Cup to win five home games in a row without conceding a goal.
