I didn’t start watching until half time, but we’ve looked strong so far this half. Could easily have scored, and RLC possibly should have. I think the return pass from Giroud was bobbling though - if Giroud has passed it cleanly I suspect RLC would have finished.

Wow - what a free kick from Luiz. We’re getting closer

Chelsea have looked more than comfortable away from home which should bode you well for the 2nd leg.

Agree. Frankfurt look good on the break, so always have a chance to score against our slower defenders, but we really did look stronger overall.

Giroud was lamppost today, but then again our crosses couldn't be any wūrst. There is cause for concern at venerability of our back line against counter attacking teams. Need to be disciplined at the back in the return leg, if we want to progress to the final.
That said, winning the EL this season will be quite an achievement, considering our strikers options

Should have really killed the game off today. Really poor finishing. Frankfurt will be a lot better at Stanford Bridge when the get Rebic and Haller back. Tie still 50-50.

Is Haller due back by the second leg TLLL? I can’t find any info on his return date

I think he had a minor injury. Not sure really.
