Napoli the Serie A runaway league leaders 0-2 behind on AGG v AC Millan 4th in Serie A and 22 points behind. Football heritage when it comes to the Champions league or simply the nature of cup competitions.
Heritage can’t be ignored in the CL. These are big European nights and how the club prepares behind the scenes is also a part of it. Plus it’s a cup competition, anything goes.

They were acting the same after the first leg finished.

They have been marginally the better team today but ultimately they are still 2 - 0 down.
I thought they were just trying to generate engagement in the second half at first but they genuinely believe there's an upset about to happen. I doubt Chelsea will score if they play another 3 games against Madrid.

PL is the best agenda then, I guess

Poor from Reece. Completely accidental but looked painful and was dangerous.

Goals win games and ultimately it’s what we lack most as a team this season. We haven’t played nearly as bad for our position in the table as a whole, we are just inexplicably bad at scoring.

We are extremely reactive after a favorable score in the first leg.

But the table shows that you've been extremely poor in securing goals and/or taking the chances while trying to keep it tight at the back. That is the most important thing, score a goal and you're horrific at it thus a horrific table position relative to your spending. It's insane. 5 clubs have scored currently fewer goals than Chelsea....and all 4 of the 5 are fighting the drop.
