Chelsea beat Slavia Prague 4-3 in a truly odd game at Stamford Bridge.
It wasn’t just the score that was strange, there were plenty of memorable moments on the pitch too that made the whole thing stick in the mind more than your average Europa League game against a minnow.
First up there’s David Luiz’ no look pass early on.

Then you’ve got the “Spiderman” moment with the defender at the end, where he finally got to meet up with his doppelganger on the pitch.

Mateo Kovacic didn’t have a great game, but this silky skill he pulled off on the touchline was a memorable moment for him.
he ended up being called offside but this was a great bit of tekkers from Kovačić #CFC https://t.co/yjygyghwon

Then finally, the piece de resistance and probably the moment we will remember the best from this tie, Pedro’s insane miss cannoning into the goal off the post and a defender’s face. Ouch.
