Chelsea 4-0 Juventus: 5 hits and flops as Blues crush the Bianconeri to go top of the group | UEFA Champions League 2021-22

Hit: Thiago Silva (Chelsea)

Thiago Silva produced a moment of magic tonight.

How about that for a goal-line clearance? Thiago Silva took everyone's breath away with a stunning clearance to deny Alvaro Morata a certain goal in the second half.

The moment perfectly encapsulated the veteran Brazilian - pacy, vigilant, and talismanic - making a crucial intervention in a heroic moment that will be talked about for days.

Silva, 37, was rock solid in defense for the Blues, showing excellent positional awareness and covering his markers closely to make sure Juventus had no luck in goal tonight.

Flop: Federico Chiesa (Juventus)

No heroics from Federico Chiesa tonight

Scorer of the winning goal against Chelsea in the reverse fixture, Federico Chiesa didn't have a happy reunion with the Premier League side tonight, enduring a tough game at Stamford Bridge.

Starting alongside Morata in a two-pronged attack, the Italian was in no man's land for much of the game, cutting an isolated figure upfront as Juventus failed to service him properly.

Not that Chiesa worked hard off the ball, and his work rate was poor too. He finished the game without mustering a shot at Chelsea's goal and completing only 12 passes in 80 minutes of action.

Hit: Jorginho (Chelsea)

Jorginho Hitting all the right notes again

Last but never least, Jorginho delivered another masterclass in midfield for the reigning European champions.

A battering ram of a player, he was key to impeding Juventus, making five interceptions and four tackles.

He read the game brilliantly to always turn up at the right place at the right time and intervene while hounding Juventus players off the ball with Terrier-like pressing.
