Chelsea 0 Porto 1 LIVE REACTION: Blues reach Champions League semis with astute last-eight performance – updates

THAT'S ALL FROM SEVILLE

Chelsea are through to the Champions League semi-finals, despite losing 1-0 to Porto at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium, thanks to an aggregate of 2-1.

The Blues lacked any major chances throughout the entire encounter but were still composed and didn't allow the Dragons to create any major dangers.

It looked like the west Londoners would pick up another clean sheet but Mehdi Taremi ruined their plans in the fourth minute of stoppage time with an incredible overhead kick.

Thomas Tuchel's men are now set to face either Real Madrid or Premier League rivals Liverpool in the semi-finals

MORE FROM TUCHEL

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admitted that he got "nervous" after Mehdi Taremi's screamer.

Tuchel added that Mateo Kovacic got injured before the game and will miss Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City, which is why he had to risk with N'Golo Kante.

Tuchel said: "I was still nervous because a goal can change anything, even if it is a crazy goal or bicycle kick like this, it can happen.

"I can imagine both games were not the nicest games to watch on television, I can totally accept, but it is very hard to play your best game against Porto.

"He [Kovacic] had a little injury out of nothing. I am sure he is out for the City game as well, very sad for him.

"We took the risk with N'Golo, maybe not a risk but the situation. We put him on the field and hoped he had the energy for 90 minutes.

"N'Golo is incredible, he is like one-and-a-half or two players, everyone loves him. He wins so many balls, gives everybody confidence. We were not sure if N'Golo would have started today but now it is time to recover good"

FULL-TIME SCUFFLE

There was a bit of drama on the pitch following the referee's whistle.

A video and a number of pictures have emerged showing Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel and Porto manager Sergio Conceicao exchanging heated words after the Blues' coach reportedly said something towards the Dragons' bench.

There was also a confrontation between Antonio Rudiger as well as Pepe and Agustin Marchesin but Porto sporting director Luis Goncalves separated them.

Thiago Silva helped defuse the situation when he embraced Pepe

TUCHEL REACTS

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is pleased with his players' performance, despite the loss, and claims they deserved a clean sheet.

Tuchel told BT Sport: "It was a tough fight. Maybe not nice to watch on the television. It was very hard to play against them, very hard to escape the pressure. They are aggressive and attack in an aggressive way. They overlap, underlap, you have to adapt to many movements.

"With every minute we adapted better and better. We defended very well, deserved a clean sheet and had the better chances, not a lot. But we couldn't finish them off. Overall, we deserved to beat Porto.

"Porto is a team that can make other teams underperform. It happened to Man City in the group stage and Juventus. So you have to accept things are very hard.

"Part of performances is to not let the other team perform and we did that today. Lucky shot in the last minute but we did not concede chances.

"I like it in Champions League not to play in teams from your own league, it gives the feeling more of a European competition. The game is far from over and I will watch it for sure. It's a pleasure to watch it as a semi-finalist. It's a great achievement and tomorrow we will watch the game. Everything is possible. We will take what we get"

STATS

Porto dominated 54.1 per cent of possession throughout the second-leg.

The Dragons registered a total of eight shots, two of which were on target.

Porto were the most frustrated side as they picked five yellow card whereas none of Thomas Tuchel's men got into the referee's book

REMEMBER MI

To be more exact, Taremi scored on 93:01 minutes, which marks the latest goal Chelsea have conceded in the Champions League in over 15 years.

That of course excludes any extra-time goals they have let in throughout the past.

SCREAMER
