Blues’ resilience comes at cost

Atletico Madrid 0-0 Chelsea

Two managers so very alike cancelled each other out, even if that was much more on Jose Mourinho than Diego Simeone.

The Argentinian may still be on course to replicate Mourinho’s great 2004 FC Porto achievement of winning the Champions League with a club outside the 20 wealthiest in Europe, and thereby truly prove himself like the Portuguese, but this tie brought out some of the least appealing qualities in both.
