Chelsea manager Antonio Conte was pragmatic after his side had to settle for second place in Group C, insisting teams will want to avoid facing the reigning Premier League champions in the knockout stage of the Champions League.
After the 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea were overtaken in the group by Roma, whilst Atletico Madrid finished in third place and had to settle for a place in the Europa League.
Speaking to Sky Sports post-match, Conte said: "When you play this competition, then you go through, you must be ready to face the best teams, in this case we know we could play against Barcelona, PSG or Besiktas.
