Barcelona forward Thierry Henry was not in the squad to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final.

The former Arsenal skipper, who injured his knee at the weekend in the 6-2 thrashing of Real Madrid, travelled with the Spanish champions elect to London but was not fit to play.

Barca coach Josep Guardiola also had problems at the back as Rafael Marquez was out injured and Carles Puyol suspended, with Seydou Keita and Sergio Busquets his changes from the first leg.

The hosts had Ashley Cole back from suspension and there was also a place for Nicolas Anelka to support Didier Drogba in attack, with John Mikel Obi on the bench.
