FULL TIME: Chelsea 6-1 Nordsjaelland at Stamford Bridge.

Torres goes through one-on-one with the goalkeeper, his hat-trick is on but his tame shot is straight into Hansen's arms. Waste.

Cross from the left by Torres finds Moses with his back to goal but his backheeled effort is saved.

Free kick on the edge of the area after Hazard's winding run is ended by a crude foul. Luiz gets it over the wall and towards the top corner but his measured effort dips just over the bar.

Cahill and Luiz are linking up on the right wing as Chelsea continue to look for their seventh goal. It is still a pointless exercise as Juventus continue to lead.

Oscar's cross from the right finds Cahill who knocks down into Torres' path but Hansen saves well from the contact Torres gets on the ball, which isn't much.

Hazard's cross finds Torres in the box, he juggles the box three or four times as he tries to tee himself up but with his back to goal he can't do it and lays it off to Oscar instead whose drilled shot is saved. Corner.

Torres goes to ground in the box after a shove - a clear penalty - but after already giving three tonight the referee doesn't consider it and waves away the appeals.

Ferreira breaks with purpose down the right, but collides with his team-mate Moses, perhaps giving a clue at how little he is on the wavelength of his team nowadays.

Easy to see why Nordsjaelland have the worst defensive record in this competition - completely overpowered.

A poor goal kick by Hansen is cheered, it is scuffed but fortunately lands at the feet of one of his defenders rather than one of the opposition's attackers

Juan Mata departs, Paulo Ferreira comes on to replace him and make his first appearance of the season.

20 minutes remain - Juventus still lead 1-0 against Shakhtar meaning the margin of Chelsea's win is ultimately fruitless.

Ryan Bertrand enters the fray, replacing Ashley Cole who picked up a knock at the end of the first half.

Juventus have taken the lead in Donetsk - that means regardless of Chelsea's result they will be going out of the Champions League and into the Europa League. Silence around Stamford Bridge as word gets around.

Chelsea are on the attack and looking for the fourth. Torres is getting involved in the build up play well, but when it comes to putting the finishes touches he is nowhere near the required standard.

Hazard tries to do just that, breaking down the left, but his poked ball to Torres is too hard and goes for a goal kick.

Nordsjaelland have started with real purpose this half. It is down to Chelsea to snatch the initiative back and force a third goal.

In the process of Torres scoring that goal, Hansen, Nordsjaelland's goalkeeper, has injured his head but he gets to his feet after treatment and looks ok.

There has been a slightly more subdues atmosphere on the pitch since the goal, Nordsjaelland are happy to defend until the break while Chelsea aren't throwing bodies forward so desperately.

Chelsea enjoying a lot of possession around the Nordsjaelland box but the visitors have lots in defence and are proving hard to break down.

ANOTHER CHELSEA PENALTY - Mata's shot from the edge of the box strikes an arm and a third spot kick is given.

Anders Christiansen goes into the referee's book for a challenge on Luiz.

Chelsea had scored all six penalties they were awarded this season before tonight.

Ten minutes until the break - there is no doubt Chelsea have been on top for the majority of the game, but are they going to pay for not taking their chances.

It is worth noting at this point that it remains goalless between Shakhtar and Juventus.

A combination of Hazard and Moses down the left wing forces Hansen in the Nordsjaelland goal to make another desperate save. The pressure is building.

Hazard's promising counter-attack down the left comes to an end when his ball into the box is cut out by a defender.

Luiz plays a ball over the top onto the chest of Torres but as the Spaniard shapes to shoot he is hustled off the ball and dumped on the ground by an unassuming Nordsjaelland defender.

When they are in possession Nordsjaelland are well capable of passing the ball around.

A burst of quick one-touch passing sees Chelsea break into the box but Torres' final shot is tame, he can't really reach the ball in all fairness. Lovely build-up play from the hosts.

Great save from the Nordsjaelland goalkeeper after Victor Moses volleys on target from a tight angle.
