Lampard relieved as Chelsea leave it late in Denmark

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard admitted some relief after their Champions League win at Norsjaelland.

Lampard described Chelsea's victory as a great result but also admitted he was a little concerned before a late flood of goals sealed the win.

Lampard told Sky Sports: "It was a great result for us, it was a tough game. They were a bit of an unknown but we know they played good football and we had to bide our time, we put the hard work in and all the goals came at the end."

Asked if he was concerned at any point, Lampard said: "A little bit because this is Champions League football, there are no easy games and at 1-0 they created a few half-chances, hit the post in the second half, but once we got the second goal that was it and we dominated from there on."
