Nigeria star Victor Moses made his second UEFA Champions League start for Chelsea this season as the Blues were held a 1-1 draw at home to Atletico Madrid in Tuesday night’s encounter at Stamford Bridge.
Saul Niguez’s header in the 56th minute gave the Spanish side the lead in the encounter but a deflected shot from Eden Hazard in the second half earned Chelsea their second draw of the competition.
The game was Moses’ sixth appearance in the UCL since making his debut in the competition during the 2012/2013 season with the Blues.
In the group’s game, Diego Perotti’s goal against Qarabag in Rome sent AS Roma through to the next round with a 1-0 as group winners courtesy of a better head to head record than Chelsea.
