Honda nets five as Chelsea crash out

Mourinho masterminds Chelsea exit and CSKA reach quarters


Japanese striker Keisuke Honda was the top points scoring player in last night's Champions League matches with five points.

Honda smashed home a free-kick and picked up the assist for Tomas Necid's opener as CSKA Moscow beat Sevilla 2-1.

The win in Spain gave the Russian's an aggregate 3-2 victory and means they join Manchester United, Arsenal, Lyon and Bayern Munich in the last eight.

They'll be joined by Jose Mourinho who maintained his excellent record at Stamford Bridge with a 1-0 win for Inter Milan against his former club, Chelsea.

Samuel Eto'o got the game's only goal, latching on to a Wesley Sneijder through ball and firing past stand-in keeper Ross Turnbull, and sent the Italian champions through 3-1 on aggregate.

Chelsea's night got even worse in the 87th minute when Didier Drogba was shown a red card for a second bookable offence.

    Didier Drogba discipline

    Drogba has now picked up a suspension in each of Chelsea's last three exits from the Champions League. He was shown red for flicking Nemanja Vidic in the face late-on in the 2008 final. He was given a three-match ban following his angry protests following their defeat to Barcelona in the 2009 semi-final and this season his is shown red as they go out at the quarter-final stage.
