Champions League: Match Day 4 (Group Stages)

Chelsea 3 v 0 Schalke Eto'o (31, 54), Ba (83)
First Half: Draxler misses with a low shot from the edge just wide of the post. Schurrle free kick heads for the top corner but is stopped by a great save. Goal! Eto'o chases down the goalkeeper and slots home.
Half Time:1-0.
Second Half: Goal! Willian plays the ball to Eto'o who slots into the far side of the goal. Goal! Ba scores with a left footed volley into the far corner from Willian's pass.
Full Time: 3-0.



My Opinion:
My man of the match was Eto'o. Chelsea were clearly the better team and fully deserved to take all three points. Eto'o in particular was impressive and showed glimpses of his former self. Schalke were simply outplayed and never really got back into the match.

Borussia Dortmund 0 v 1 Arsenal Ramsay (62)
First Half: Subotic volleys just wide of the post. Lewandowski drags a long range shot wide of the near post. Reus header saved from the bottom corner.
Half Time: 0-0.
Second Half: Goal! Ramsay heads in Giroud's headed pass from close range to put Arsenal ahead. Mertesacker header just over.
Full Time: 0-1.



My Opinion:
My man of the match was Koscielny. Dortmund were in control during the first half but failed to take any of their chances which ultimately cost them. Arsenal put in a strong performance to take all three points back to London and continue their fine run of form.

Best Goal: Inler
