Atletico had to win to have a chance of advancing, but although Saul Niguez's second-half header put the visitors ahead, Chelsea drew level through a Stefan Savic own goal. Chelsea were already through to the knockout stages, but blew their chance to finish in first place and in theory earn an easier draw. Having lost and drawn against Roma, Chelsea finished second behind the Italians due to their inferior head-to-head record. With Roma always expected to beat Qarabag, Chelsea knew only a win would be enough to guarantee top spot. Morata should have put Chelsea ahead moments later, but he shot too close to Oblak.
