- 75'
The last few minutes just summed up by a Gronkjaer cross from deep that lacked direction and seemingly conviction as the inevitable is now just 15 minutes away
- 73'
Very little in the way of significant events now in this game as Chelsea are trying to chip against a solid red and white wall.
- 71'
Monaco now back in numbers realising that denying Chelsea space is a good way of stopping them getting three goals
- 70'
Either Chelsea are going out of the Champions League or we are about to see the most exciting 20 minutes of football this season
- 69'
Gronkjaer corner makes its way to Johnson on the edge of the box. Never really under his control and he skies the effort well over the bar (nearly over the stand behind the goal)
- 67'
Double substitution for Chelsea as Crespo and Parker come on for a final throw of the dice. Hasselbaink and Geremi make way
- 66'
Substitution for Monaco. The disappointing (by his high standards) Giuly makes way for Croatian striker Prso
- 65'
Frustration creeping in now to those in blue. Gronkjaer has a little pointless spat with Evra who is wasting a bit of time. No need from the Chelsea man as the referee is on top of the game
- 64'
Gudjohnsen tries to get something going with a run and decent cross to the far post where Gronkjaer, momentarily, has space. He brings it down but doesn't go for goal straight away and the chance passes
- 63'
Cole shows his frustration by kicking out at Ibarra to get his name in the referee's notebook
- 62'
Ranieri feels a change is in order. Mechiot's night is over as the young legs of Johnson are called for
- 60'
Neat and tidy forward play from Monaco as Rothen, again, took the fight to Chelsea. Little revers pass from Rothen released Morientes to face Cudicini and, though the keepr got something on it, the shot was of enough quality to beat him regardless. 2-2 on the night, 5-3 to Monaco over all. A long way back for the home side now...
- 59'
The game promised more goals and it has delivered. Morientes the man on target and it is all square on the night, 2-2, but well in Monaco's favour with Chelsea now needing three goals to progress
- 58'
Cole dribbles down the left, cuts back and tries to pick out one of three Chelsea men in the six yard box, two of them unmarked. Right idea but only hits the solitary Monaco defender
- 57'
Cisse up on his feet and back on the pitch
- 56'
Cisse is carried off the pitch in rather dramatic fashion when he is clearly not badly hurt
- 55'
Noticable level of nerves coming from the crowd. The boisterous, bullish noise has subsided a little in the second period
- 54'
Rothen is the latest player to be booked for a a needless foul
- 53'
Plasil breaks down the middle with menace but his rather hurried shot from a long way out is weak and dribbles wide of Cudicini's left hand post
- 52'
Substitution for Monaco as Plasil comes on to replace Squillaci (actually happened at half time but I missed it then)
- 50'
The series of amazing misses continues at pace. Bridge does better this time to get deep and cross low and hard. No Chelsea man reached it but the deflection saw it run through to Gronkjaer, completely unmarked 15 yards away from goal. Snap shot is sent over the bar when it looked easier to score. Unbelievable
- 48'
Industry from Cole robs Bernardi of the ball and it breaks to Geremi. Diagonal ball releases Bridge but, with time to measure his cross, spoons it into the crowd
- 47'
When the kick is taken it is flighted to the back post where Terry out jumps his marker but puts too much angle on the header and sees it goe well wide
- 46'
Yellow card for Bernardi after failing to retreat and allow Hasselbaink to take a quick free kick
- 45'
Right from the off Gudjohsen is presented with a real chance. A deflected pass towards him falls kindly and he swings at it from 12 yards. Mistimes it though and the ball bounces off his shins. Difficult strike but definitely a chance
- 45'
A first half worthy of a Champions League semi-final. Chances have come and gone for both sides with Morientes, Gudjohnsen and Cole guilty of wastefullness. Great attacking play from both sides with Rothen and Lampard pulling the strings for their respective sides. No way of knowing how this will end but you can be sure their will be more goals. Wonderful stuff!
- 45'
The half comes to a close and, as the players leave the pitch, Gronkjaer gets booked for saying something out of turn to the referee - stupid, just stupid.
- 45'
Rothen, who has been on fire with the ball at his feet tonight, skins Melchiot to get to the byline on the left and cut back with a chip to Morientes. Decent header from the Spaniard places the ball out of Cudicini's reach but strikes the post. Ibarra gets to the rebound before Bridge and, despite appeals for handball from Cudicini, forces the ball over the line with his chest.
- 45'
They've looked capable all along and now they have done it. Monaco get one back and regain the aggregate lead. 2-1 on the night
- 45'
Two minutes of added time to be played
- 44'
Quality, quick interchanging of passes from Melchiot and Gudjohnsen creates the chance for Lampard as he breaks down the middle and shows composure to angle his effort away from the advancing keeper. Great move, great goal and a cracking game of football
- 43'
Chelsea's most consistent performer pops up with perhaps his most important goal to date. Lampard gets on the scoresheet to make it 2-0 to Chelsea and the tie is all square
- 42'
Monaco finding their feet now in some style as they look to break into the space that Chelsea are affording them between the defence and midfield
- 41'
Important crunching tackle from Melchiot in the centre circle stops another dangerous looking counter attack
- 39'
Chelsea attack breaks down in the Monaco box and Rothen springs a lightening counter attack. Terry does his best to stop him but can't and he threads a delicious ball through to Morientes. He takes it perfectly to cut inside and be faced with just Cudicini to beat from 12 yards. Places his effort wide of the keeper but also the post. Glorious chance went begging
- 38'
First yellow card of the night as Evra barges/body checks Gronkjaer in full flight
- 37'
Rare Monaco attack comes to nothing as the final ball in is directed at no one in particular. Cudicini says thank you very much before launching another forward move
- 36'
All Chelsea now as chance after chance comes and goes. But Monaco have given notice as to their ability on the break. Will Chelsea rue these missed opportunities?
- 34'
Camped in the Monaco half several players are involved as Chelsea play around the box, looking for a way in. Eventually the ball breaks to Lampard, central just inside the box. A cracking volley sees Roma dive full lenght to his right top turn the ball away from the bottom corner. Fantastic save
- 33'
Amazing save from Roma as Chelsea continue to poor forward
- 32'
Gudjohnsen is visibly angry with himself - and rightly so
- 31'
Loose ball from Geremi ricochets on to Hasselbaink who twists and turns before putting over a perfect cross for Gudjohnsen. Takes the keeper out of the game and leaves Gudjohnsen, 2 feet out, with an open goal. Givet is getting back but he still should have scored instead of hitting the bar
- 29'
Still a certain urgency to what Chelsea are doing which is leading to as many mistakes as probing attacks
- 28'
Long punt forward from Bridge looks like it is easy for Roma to collect but he takes his eye off the ball and is fortunate to see it run into a safe area where he can pick up at the second attempt
- 27'
Monaco look to restore their early composure by spreading the ball around their midfield and back line
- 25'
Great game on our hands here as both sides look capable of scoring every time they attack
- 24'
Big let off for Chelsea. Rothen does well to find space on the right and hit the byline before cutting back to the middle perfectly for Morientes. Terry threw himself at the shot which did enough to deflect the effort on to the post when Cudicini was beaten. Desperately unlucky for the French side
- 23'
Bridge has to look lively to head a cross behind when Morientes was lurking
- 22'
Melchiot made ground down the right wing before passing the ball short to Gronkjaer. He cuts inside and, head down, swings what looked like a cross to the far post but the bend on the ball beats Roma in the Monaco goal all ends up. Perhaps a little fortunate but no less than Chelsea deserve
- 21'
Goal for Chelsea and it is now game on 1-0 on the night and 2-3 overall
- 20'
Good build up play from Gudjohsen squares the ball to Geremi dead centre but 30 yards out. Shoots/punts the ball into the top tier
- 19'
No let up in the volume from the home fans who like what they've seen so far from their team
- 18'
Great period of play from Chelsea and they really need to score during it to make this tie come alive again. All Chelsea so far
- 17'
Evra hurt himself in trying to stop Hasselbaink and has left the field for now to receive treatment
- 16'
Brilliant invention from Cole in the middle of the pitch to take out two men. Frees Hasselbaink who cuts across his man on the right corner of the box and shoots back across the face of goal to draw a fantastic save from Roma
- 15'
Geremi, later in the move, stings the palms of Roma from the edge of the box with a powerful drive. The ball breaks kindly to the unmarked Cole who misses from only 7 yards. Awful miss that will haunt him if Chelsea fail tonight
- 14'
Melchiot punts up towards Hasselbaink who helps it on to Gudjohsen but a chance goes begging as he is forced away from goal
- 13'
Corner follows corner as Chelsea camp in Monaco's half for a few minutes. Ball breaks to Lampard just inside the box. Doesn't have time to let it drop and ends up swinging a leg at thin air. Only half a chance
- 12'
Punt over the top from Lampard pits Cole against Givet in the box. The defender's experience comes into play as he nicks the ball off Cole's toes at the expense of a corner
- 11'
Left wing out-swinging cross from Bridge sees Hasselbaink diving to get his head to it but he is well marshalled by Givet
- 10'
Morientes takes the first strike at goal for Monaco. Fully 25 yards out his shot is on target but lacks power
- 9'
Neat play from the back allows Lampard time to try and pick out Gudjohsen between the last two defenders but the pass lacks accuracy
- 8'
Bridge does well to beat his man and get down the wing. Feeds Cole in front of him but his first time cross is too low and is easily cleared
- 7'
Slightly disjointed passage of play as Chelsea probe for a route forward with Monaco happy to sit back and let them come at the same time as denying them space
- 5'
Rothen again looks to put a ball into the box for Morientes but the ball from deep is too long and Cudicini collects comfortably
- 4'
Patient possession from the visitors who obviously have less incentive to force the pace of the game
- 3'
Cracking atmosphere at the Bridge tonight as the home fans urge their team forward
- 2'
Industrious run down the left flank from Rothen as he just gets a cross over but no one is there to benefit
- 1'
Long ball forward from Bridge is poorly dealt with by the Monaco defence allowing Hasselbaink the first shot from distance. Didn't quite get behind it and easy for Roma but an attacking intent shown early on
Chelsea kick off and the game is underway
William Gallas is back from a hamstring injury to bolster the Chelsea defence
for this Champions League semi-final, second leg. The Frenchman has replaced Robert
Huth in what is Claudio Ranieri's only change from the team who beat
Southampton 4-0 on Saturday.
Monaco show two changes from the first leg. Andreas Zikos is suspended
following his red card in that match and replaced by former West Ham midfielder
Edouard Cisse, while Sebastien Squillaci comes in for injured striker Dado Prso.
