Drogba: Juventus did Chelsea favour going ahead

Chelsea needed to fall behind to sort out their game plan against Juventus last night, says striker Didier Drogba.

Drogba revealed: "We didn't really know what to do, if we should attack or not, so we played counter-attacking football. When they scored, we decided to play our game so I think it was a good thing they scored.

"You always want to start out to win the game, but at some point it was difficult to take a decision and I think the goal really helped us.

"It's a good result. The draw is like a victory to us. We wanted to come here and qualify and that's what we have done."
