Chelsea can wobble in the Europa Conference League and still win with something approaching comfort. They were below par for much of the first leg of this last-16 tie but still took a decisive step towards the quarter-finals after seeing off a spirited challenge from FC Copenhagen with goals from Reece James and Enzo Fernández.

Enzo Maresca will still see room for improvement. Chelsea were underwhelming before Maresca introduced a few stars at half-time and they still have work to do after Copenhagen brought the score back to 2-1 during the closing stages.
