Chelsea hit late winner at Atletico as PSG cruise by Bayern; Man Utd win

Michy Batshuayi scored with the final kick of the game to give Chelsea a 2-1 win away to Atletico Madrid in Champions League Group C on Wednesday.

Chelsea had the wide majority of chances in the first half, most notably Eden Hazard's deflected shot from distance striking the post

But Atletico went ahead against the run of play as David Luiz tugged down Lucas Hernandez while trying to defend a corner, and Antoine Griezmann scored from the resulting penalty in the 40th minute.

And it was nearly 2-0 before the break as Saul Niguez put a rebound inches wide after Thibaut Courtois could only parry Koke's long shot into the centre of the box.
