Chelsea ace Juan Mata feels in great form going into their Champions League semifinal against Barcelona.

Chelsea will need Mata to cause Barca problems at the other end and the winger allayed fears he was feeling the effects of the club's punishing run of games.

He said: "I am very happy with the way I'm playing. I'm satisfied to avoid injuries.

"I've played many games this season and I'm still holding on physically so I have to continue like this."
