Hello, welcome into the latest edition of ESPNFC. K. Murray, Craig Burley and Stuart Robson joining us tonight as we talk Champions League, kicking things off at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea were taking on Barcelona. We did see an early chance for Barcelona in the six minutes through Ferran Torres, but that's about all we saw from them in terms of getting in front of goal. As for Chelsea, they managed to put it in the net. A few times fewer a disallowed, but in the 26 minute, an own goal put them ahead. It was Jules Cunde who scored that. We saw a special goal in the 55th from Estevao and Liam DeLap, scoring in the 73rd to make it 3-0. Red card for Araujo in the first half here. The first was a yellow for dissent after Cuccarella had fouled the men in your mouth. Foul wasn't called. And then about 10 minutes after that, he got a second yellow for a foul and was given his marching orders. Chelsea with the 3-0 win. Now Mario Melchiot here to talk more about what we've just seen. We're going to get to Chelsea, we're going to get to Chelsea's win. We must get to Barcelona though and the red card for Arauco because people will bring that up and say yes, they were down to 10 men, but were they really even that competitive before it, Barcer? No, that was the one chance we saw Ferrin Torres that he kind of rushed it a little bit.

But no, if you've watched... that competitive before it, Bassa? No, that was the one chance we saw Ferrin Torres that he kind of rushed it a little bit.

But no, if you've watched

Spanish football

as we do on a weekly

basis, you'll know that this

Barcelona side have got a good result at the weekend

the game you were thinking you were doing the

Athletic Club. Athletic Club were terrible.

But Bassa did a job, but they've been severely unconvincing defensively.

And what we saw with 11 men was Chelsea able to dominate them.

Before a Rojo got sent off for two stupid decisions.

But that's who Barcelona are.

And you guys were in Madrid.

Sorry, you were in Spain to watch Real Madrid at the weekend,

get a lucky draw against Elche.

When you look at how they're playing and how this Barcelona team are playing,

if one of these two wins the league, and that's the likely scenario,

one of the worst champions in recent history, because they're both terrible.

Yeah, Basar can be more exciting going forward.
