Chelsea Vs FC Copenhagen: Blues Through To Conference League Quarters

Chelsea reached the quarterfinals of the third-tier Conference League with a 1-0 victory over Copenhagen to advance 3-1 on aggregate. Former Leicester City forward Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored the only goal of the game as Enzo Maresca's side sealed their place in the Conference League quarter-finals with a forgettable second-leg win over Copenhagen. Chelsea progress, though, and will face Polish side Legia Warsaw in the last eight.
