The skipper led by an example and made a big impression on a big night for him. He stood tall against Chelsea's glamorous names with his tackles and clearances. The 35-year old Hungary international was particularly at his obdurate best in the first half when he denied the hosts two big chances from Morata and Willian.

On both occasions, he unhesitatingly threw his massive frame in their way to avert the danger for just a corner. In fact, he made four clearances and three successful tackles, both of which are among the highest in the game. Juhasz was a true leader at the back, who was also seen rallying his troops during the testing phases of the match.

His only blotch on another memorable evening was when he was beaten by Morata for the goal. Johasz stood right behind him when the Spaniard readied himself to take the shot but pulled a blank expression when he pinched it over.
