Cech: No-one at Chelsea doubted our Champions League progress

Petr Cech says no-one at Chelsea felt their Champions League progress was under threat.

Chelsea went into the game knowing anything other than a victory would see them eliminated from the competition. However Cech claimed that the thought of an early exit never entered the players' minds.

"Nobody was thinking that a club as big as Chelsea with such a high-quality squad should miss out. It would have been a sensation," he said.

"We believed in our skills and the team worked as one man. In the end we are top of the group which was our initial aim."
