Jose Mourinho content but Chelsea still have work to do

Maccabi Tel Aviv 0 Chelsea 4: Chelsea’s Champions League fate will go to the final group game after a 4-0 win over 10-man Maccabi Tel Aviv earned successive victories for the first time in two months.

Porto’s home loss to Dynamo Kiev means progression from Group G is not certain for Chelsea, who beat Norwich last Saturday and host Jose Mourinho’s former side in Europe on December 9.

A draw should be enough for the Blues to advance to the knockout stages. Gary Cahill scored from a corner and former Chelsea defender Tal Ben Haim was shown a straight red card before half-time for a wild kick at Diego Costa, who had an altercation with Mourinho at the interval.
