Hakim Ziyech says Chelsea had Thursday's clash with Atletico Madrid 'under control'.

The Blues entered the last-16 clash with a 1-0 lead, which was doubled in the first-half by Ziyech.

Thomas Tuchel's eventually won 2-0, and Ziyech felt the result was never in doubt.

He told BT Sport: "Some difficult moments in the game but for most of the time we had it under control. It was an important goal and I had to wait a long time for it.

"It is always good when you go 1-0 up, especially when you make it by yourself. Timo's delivery was good as well.

"It was a bit like seeing how the game would go for 10 minutes and after that we had control. We did well.

"They didn't create a lot. We can be happy about the performance. Hopefully it will be a good opponent for the last eight."
