Re: Football Season 2012/2013
BBC on why Chelsea are out.
So why exactly are Chelsea going out? It all goes down to their head-to-head record with Shakhtar Donetsk. Both teams have 10 points, but the side from Ukraine will go through because they scored more goals at Chelsea than the London club managed in the reverse fixture. (This comes on the list of qualification criteria after goal difference and goals scored between the two teams - both of which were the same).
If you are interested, that is Champions League rule 7.06, sub-section d).
I'm sure you knew that...
