Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech admits defeat at Juventus has left their chances of defending of qualifying for the Champions League knockout stages hanging by a thread.

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has admitted that tonight's 3-0 defeat to Juventus has left their Champions League defence in tatters.

Goals from Fabio Quagliarella, Arturo Vidal and Sebastian Giovinco condemned the Blues to third place in Group E with just one match remaining.

Cech believes that his side's failure to take their chances ultimately cost them in Turin.

He said: "We showed much better spirit than the last games. The first half it was very difficult, we did well and created chances, but if you create a chance you need to take it. That was the difference.

"They went ahead with a lucky deflection, the second goal was another deflection but they did very well and deserved to win. We didn't cope very well.

"We said before the game that we have our destiny in our hands, not any more. Now we need to do our bit, we need to win our last game and hope our fate is kind. Being realistic Juventus played very well and they need a point and Shakhtar Donetsk are already through. It is a very sad moment."

Roberto Di Matteo's side need to beat Nordsjaelland in their final match and hope that Shakhtar beat Juventus on the final night of group matches.
