Chelsea kicked off its quest for an elusive Champions League title with a 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen courtesy of second-half goals by Brazil defender David Luiz and Spain winger Juan Mata on Tuesday.
Luiz produced the kind of finish that had proved beyond his team’s misfiring strikers in a hard-fought Group E opener by running onto Fernando Torres’ lay-off and bending a sublime strike into the bottom corner in the 67th minute.
Torres was also the provider for Mata’s goal with seconds remaining, breaking free down the left and unselfishly setting up his international teammate for a easy tap-in when he could easily have gone for goal himself to break his drought this season.
