    Speaking of cricket, there is an impressive first-innings score being built in Rome - impressive and vicious from Bayern Munich.

    Arjen Robben makes a run from outside the full-back near the touchline to get in behind the defence and the Dutchman is picked out to power his second of the game home. That's 4-0.

    And the punishment is not ending. A handball in the area sees a penalty awarded and Thomas Muller converts low into the corner.

    That's 35 minutes, five goals. A bludgeoning.

    Is it time to bring in a cricket-style declaration?

    Jose Mourinho, whose side face Manchester United at the weekend, would gladly shake hands with counterpart Ante Simundza right now and give his players an hour off. Maribor could make an earlier flight home - job done...

    "What is John Terry doing in the centre-forward position? It's a fantastic goal.

    "Eden Hazard was instrumental and carried the ball for 40 yards, maybe more, and he was patient and waited for the support to arrive.

    "Terry must have ran the full length of the pitch to score that goal. He may well have been offside, but let's give him the benefit of the doubt for that one."

    John Terry was just offside as he met that Cesc Fabregas assist, but there was no flag. Terry's first Champions League goal since the Napoli game in March 2012.

    There is a distinct lack of goals in the Championship. Four more have gone in since Huddersfield scored the first of the evening against Brighton. In the big game at the top of the table, Watford lead against Nottingham Forest through Odion Ighalo's goal. Ipswich are 1-0 up at Cardiff thanks to a Daryl Murphy strike, Alex Revell has scored to make it Rotherham 1-0 Fulham and Charlton lead against Bolton courtesy of George Tucudean.

    Dider Drogba, now John Terry?! All the old boys are in on the act. Drogba clears a Maribor corner, Eden Hazard dribbles it from halfway and waits for Cesc Fabregas to arrive on his shoulder. Fabregas looks up and picks out Terry in the goalmouth, he has made a 70-yard run and can't miss.

    Showboat o'clock? Eden Hazard tries an outrageous backheeled through ball which very nearly comes off and moments later a neat turn from Cesc Fabregas opens up a shooting chance which is well blocked.

    Mike Hall:, external Jose Mourinho is going to try to shake hands with the Maribor coaching team and walk off in 5 minutes I expect.

    Andy:, external Lights out for Maribor at the Bridge already.

    Bayern Munich and Barcelona are seemingly in sync. Earlier they both scored within seconds of each other and they have just replicated the feat.

    Andres Iniesta zips a ball into Lionel Messi's feet and the little magician needs no further invitation to nudge the ball home, they lead Ajax 2-0.

    Bayern extend their lead at the Stadio Olimpico against Roma to 3-0 with Mario Gotze curling their second from 18 yards and Robert Lewandowski heading a third from six yards. They are in ruthless form.

    Maribor's attacking line-up could come back to bite them now. Chelsea suddenly look like cutting through at will - we could have a goalfest on our hands here.

    "It definitely hits the hand and the referee is right on the spot.

    "Willian lifts the ball and the hand is there. There will be arguments about whether it was in an unnatural position or ball to hand, but it is handball.

    "I don't think there is any argument that it is a penalty."

    Former Manchester United winger Nani has scored for Sporting Lisbon in Schalke.

    A win for the Portuguese side there would lift them off the bottom of Chelsea's group. Julian Draxler has responded for the home side by firing a volley just wide.

    "Not bad for a third striker, Drogba. I know he might be more senior and he may not have the pace and running ability he once had but he is still a huge danger.

    "Not only for Maribor, but at Old Trafford, if he plays. He will certainly cause that back four (Man Utd) problems."

  19. Who's next?published at 20:04 British Summer Time 21 October 2014

    Diego Costa is out. Loic Remy is injured. So who is next behind Didier Drogba? Well, Chelsea have plenty of players of course - but they have 26 (TWENTY-SIX) out on loan.

    Youngster Dom Solanke is on the bench tonight and could get some game time in the coming weeks.

  20. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 20:02 British Summer Time 21 October 2014

    That's it - Loic Remy is done. He hobbles off in pain and Dider Drogba is on in his place. A longer night than anticipated for the big man.
