Chelsea’s Under-19s sealed their place in the knockout stage of the Uefa Youth League by coming from behind to beat Qarabag 3-1 ahead of the first team’s Champions League game.

The home side went ahead early in the second half but Martell Taylor-Crossdale equalised with a penalty before goals from Charlie Brown and George McEachran.

Prolific striker Taylor-Crossdale tucked away the resulting spot-kick after being fouled in the area.

And Brown, on as a substitute, put the Blues ahead with a cracking 25-yard strike before McEachran’s cool finish made the game safe.
