Daily Express
|January 29, 2026
JOAO PEDRO hauled Chelsea into the Champions League last16 with a second-half brace.
The Blues had slipped into the playoff spots and were staring at a tricky potential tie with Manchester City’s Norwegian giantkillers Bodo/Glimt.
Former Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund had put Napoli ahead after Antonio Vergara's stunning goal cancelled out Enzo Fernandez's ‘opener from the penalty spot.
But Pedro saved Liam Rosenior's blushes after the Blues boss was forced to switch formation.
That paved the way for the Brazilian forward to score twice, with his 82nd-minute winner sending Chelsea through.
The Blues announced in the afternoon that they had released ‘bomb squad’ winger Raheem Sterling.
