Moses late strike hands Chelsea win in Champions League
The Champions League holders were today in danger of being the first holders to crash out of the competition before Christmas as former target Willian twice cancelled out almighty howlers from goalkeeper Andrily Pyatov which gifted goals to Fernando Torres and Oscar, the latter's fourth in as many Champions League games.
But the introduction of Victor Moses towards the end of the second match helped Chelsea to win the match as he scored an incredible last-gasp winner with a header in the 94th minutes from a corner from Mata.
The late goal from Moses steal a barely-believable victory that put Chelsea level on points with their opponents at the top of Group E with two games remaining.
John Terry was on the bench - albeit for match-fitness reasons, a massive gamble, with the Blues having shipped 10 goals in the four games their captain has missed during his domestic racism ban.
Ashley Cole was also missing for the blues against a team who had not lost for almost 12 months and had won an astonishing 19 of their 20 matches this term.
