Victor Moses Gives Chelsea a Life Line (wins Shaktar) 3-2
« on: November 08, 2012, 12:23:24 PM »


Victor Moses rescued Chelsea with an injury-time winner against Shakhtar Donetsk, just as the defending champions' grip on the Champions League appeared to be slipping.

Roberto Di Matteo's holders were outplayed for long spells by their impressive Ukrainian visitors, who beat the Blues 2-1 in the previous round of matches, and looked destined to have to settle for a draw before substitute Moses headed in Juan Mata's corner with seconds left.

Chelsea - without captain John Terry and injured Ashley Cole - were grateful for two errors from Shakhtar goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov as poor clearances played a huge part in first-half goals for Fernando Torres and Oscar.

Brazilian Willian equalised twice to leave Chelsea effectively facing the prospect of having to beat Juventus in Italy to keep their hopes of qualifying from Group E alive.
