Chelsea 2 - 1 Benfica UEFA Football Highlights Online.Skomina, whose performance in Arsenal's last-16 exit against AC Milan led to a three-match ban for Arsene Wenger, was at it again at Stamford Bridge as the Blues reached the last four for the sixth time in nine seasons.Frank Lampard opened the scoring after Skomina awarded a penalty, which he duly put away.
The depleted visitors laid siege to the Chelsea goal at times and Javi Garcia set nerves jangling with an 85th-minute equaliser, but substitute Raul Meireles blasted home on the breakaway to seal a barely deserved home win in what was arguably the Blues' worst performance under Roberto Di Matteo.
Chelsea have been a bogey team for Barcelona down the years, but Pep Guardiola's all-conquering side will hardly be concerned about facing them again on the basis of this performance.
