CHELSEA RATINGS: Edouard Mendy 7 – A quiet game overall for the stopper, who distributed the ball well, and held on to just about every goal-bound shot. EPA
Andreas Christensen 7 – Read the game beautifully to help shut down Lille’s threat from wide areas. Having said that, the impressive Renato Sanches did have the beating of the Danish defender once or twice. EPA
Thiago Silva 8 – Another dominant performance from the former PSG man. The 37-year-old shut down Jonathan David with relative ease, massively blunting Lille’s attacking threat in the process. EPA
Antonio Rudiger 6 – Very nearly sliced the ball into his own net early on, but that aside, the German was relatively solid. Reuters
Cesar Azpilicueta 7 – The captain led by example once again. His relentless work rate set the tempo, having nearly assisted for Havertz inside the first few minutes after a run forward. AFP
Mateo Kovacic 7 – Not one of the Croatian’s best games, although his ability to keep the ball ticking over throughout did help to demotivate Lille in the first half. AFP
Hakim Ziyech 7 – Assisted Havertz for the home side’s opener, fizzing in a teasing corner that was duly headed home. While not as influential in the final third as his striking partners, the playmaker certainly left his mark on the tie. PA
Kai Havertz 8 – Could have had a hat-trick inside the first 10 minutes. The German’s header from Ziyech’s corner was well directed, while his excellent movement starkly contrasts with that of a certain other Chelsea forward right now. Reuters
SUB: Saul Niguez 6 – Retained possession nicely in the final 30 minutes. Reuters
SUB: Timo Werner N/A – Looked bright in the closing stages but didn’t see much of the ball. AP Photo
LILLE RATINGS: Leo Jardim 7 – Could do very little about either of Chelsea’s goals. The Brazilian did however pull off a handful of decent saves. AP Photo
Mehmet Zeki Celik 5 – A poor outing from the full-back, who was dragged out of position time and time again by the impressive Pulisic. AFP
Sven Botman 6 – The towering centre-back’s lack of mobility was on full display against Chelsea’s nimble attackers. That aside, he generally looked solid, avoiding any glaring mistakes. Reuters
Tiago Djalo 5 – Pinned back for virtually the entire game. The Portuguese full-back was replaced in the second half. AFP
Amadou Onana 6 – Linked up well at times with Lille’s front three, although he was caught out of position far too often when Chelsea had the ball. Reuters
Xeka 6 – Gave the ball away cheaply on more than one occasion. A passenger throughout for the French side. Reuters
Benjamin Andre 7 – Worked hard from the advanced midfield position. While his efforts often went unrewarded, his ball retention was impressive. Reuters
Renato Sanches 7 – Lille’s danger man throughout, as he wasn’t afraid to take on – and beat – Chelsea’s defenders. The 24-year-old also showcased his range of passing with a handful of raking cross-field balls. Reuters
Jonathan David 5 – A very disappointing outing for the highly promising Canadian. With chances few and far between for the away side, David’s flat-footedness will surely have frustrated his manager. Reuters
Jonathan Bamba 7 – Lively in the final third, although the end product was often lacking. Showed flashes of how good he can be. AFP
SUB: Edon Zhegrova 6 – Was well marshalled by Chelsea’s back three after replacing David, who similarly struggled to find space. AFP
SUB: Gabriel Gudmundsson 6 – A mistake free cameo from the Swede, who slotted into left-back for the final 20 minutes. Reuters
