Didier Drogba came off the bench to score the winning goal as Chelsea reached the knockout stage of the Champions League with a 2-1 victory over CFR Cluj on Tuesday.
After missing much of the season through injury, and most recently a three-game domestic ban, Drogba scored in the 71st minute. Joe Cole lofted the ball over the visiting defense and the Ivory Coast striker controlled it with a deft first touch before shooting it past goalkeeper Nuno Claro.
