Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante was delighted with their Champions League defeat of Atletico Madrid.

Kante was named man of the match as the 2-0 win saw Chelsea reach the quarterfinals 3-0 on aggregate.

He told RMC: “We knew that Atlético was a great, well-organised team.

"We tried to keep possession, to hurt with quick attacks.

"We scored on two counterattacks, that helped us a lot. We had two good matches and I think we deserve this qualification."
