Chelsea Hits Steaua Four Goals …As Barca Pips Celtic

Ramires scored twice as Chelsea recorded their first points of this season’s Champions League group stage with victory over Steaua Bucharest.

Daniel Georgievski then found his own net after a Samuel Eto’o shot was parried into his path before Ramires fired in the third after the break.
Frank Lampard slotted in the fourth off the post in stoppage time.
