UEFA Conference League (UECL) favourites Chelsea defeated FC Copenhagen 1-0 and 3-1 on aggregate to move into the quarter-finals, Afrosport reports.
The Blues won the first leg 2-1 at Parken and were not assertive in the return leg on home soil, failing to muster a single shot on target in the first half while Copenhagen had four total shots.
Chelsea found their rhythm in the second half and broke the deadlock in the 55th minute through former Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall for his third Conference League goal this season.

Enzo Maresca’s side registered a total of five shots on target in second half which was enough to see them through despite late pressure from their Danish opponents.
They will face either Polish giants Legia Warsaw or Norwegian heavyweights Molde in the last eight.
