Lampard content with draw

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard was satisfied with a scoreless draw at Schalke which leaves the Londoners on course for the last 16 of the Champions League.

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard was satisfied with a scoreless draw at Schalke which leaves the Londoners on course for the last 16 of the Champions League.

A win from the last two games – away to Rosenborg and at home to Valencia - will see Chelsea through to the next round.

Lampard told ITV4: “It was a difficult night. Schalke are a good team with big crowd behind them.

“There are times when you’ve got to come away and get a point.”

Blues keeper Petr Cech was taken off at half-time after sustaining what looked like a shin injury in the first half.

But Chelsea manager Avram Grant had no update on the Czech international.

He said: “All that I know is that he couldn’t continue and we need to wait and see.”
