Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of Chelsea against Galatasaray at Stamford Bridge in the last 16 of the Champions League. A 1-1 draw in Istanbul three weeks ago leaves the visiting side needing to score a goal otherwise they are out. But former Chelsea idol Didier Drogba is on the pitch. And we all know how much of the threat he carries two years after he netted the winning penalty in a shoot-out to give Chelsea victory over Bayern Munich in the 2012 Champions League final.

Selçuk İnan is shown a yellow card for a late challenge on Hazard. Can't complain about that.
89'
We are into three minutes of time added on. Drogba sees the ball drop into the arms of Cech after he failed to connect with the volley.
88'
Ramires decides to go for goal from distance, but he thumps the ball well wide of goal. Almost time up.
87'
A minor miracle that this match is only 2-0 in favour of Chelsea. Have been well on top all night long.

Torres goes for goal rather than square to Schurrle. Good stop from Muslera. Brilliant stuff from Hazard. Should have been the third.

Off goes Eto'o and on comes Fernando Torres for these closing moments.

Eto'o decides to go for goal from distance, but the shot is well over the bar. That is last involvement for the night.

Muslera with a fine diving stop to nudge the loose ball clear from the swerving Hazard attempt. Decent passage of play. Nice pass from Lampard to find the Belgian.
82'
César Azpilicueta lifts the ball over the top after some decent play from Eto'o to pick out Ramires. Chelsea not yet done for the evening.
81'
Cahill not messing about as he thumps the ball away from Drogba.

Schürrle arrives to replace Oscar, who has put in a real shift for Chelsea this evening.
79'
Semih Kaya pulled back by Hazard from a powerful Terry header over the top. A change coming for Chelsea here.
78'
Oscar drives the free-kick at goal. Punched out by Muslera before Lampard wallops the volley miles wide. A goalkick to the visiting side.
77'
Hazard picks up the pass from Oscar before he is taken out late by Chedjou. Another chance for Chelsea to throw this ball into the visiting area.
76'
Hajrovic is a Bosnian winger. Perhaps he can sprinkle this Gala side with some gold dust late on. Or perhaps it just wishful thinking.

Hajrovic replaces Eboué with this game drifting slowly away from Galatasaray.
74'
Melo again picked off in possession by Oscar, who has largely coasted through this match.
73'
Looks like the visting side are going to make a change here. One goal late on could yet make this interesting despite a fairly insipid 75 minutes from them.
72'
Chelsea getting so much time to dictate the pace and flow of the game with Willian and Eto'o exchanging pass before the home side opt to go backwards.
