"Yet Andrade had Qarabag on level terms 13 minutes later when Jorrel Hato misjudged a long ball, allowing Camilo Duran to steal in. The Colombian hit the post, but Andrade was on hand to steer home the rebound, and Hato's performance went from bad to worse when he blocked a cross with an outstretched arm, with Jankovic coolly slotting in from the resulting penalty."
"Alejandro Garnacho ensured Chelsea responded swiftly after the break, drilling in from the edge of the box, but despite mounting waves of pressure, the Blues could not find a winner, with Liam Delap, Enzo Fernandez and Facundo Buonanotte all going close without reward. In fact, Chelsea were fortunate that Oleksii Kashchuk turned straight at Robert Sanchez from point-blank range in stoppage time, before Garnacho saw an acrobatic attempt kept out by Mateusz Kochalski."
Chelsea were held to a 2-2 draw in Baku after taking an early lead and conceding twice to Qarabag.

Leandro Andrade levelled following a Jorrel Hato misjudgement and rebound, and Marko Jankovic converted a penalty after Hato handled a cross. Alejandro Garnacho restored Chelsea's lead after the break, but Chelsea could not find a winner despite late chances. Pafos beat Villarreal 1-0 for their first Champions League victory.
