Ex-Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has replaced Roberto Di Matteo, who was sacked earlier today, as Chelsea manager until the end of the season.

Bad night for Brits in Champions League
Man. United, Chelsea and Celtic all lost in the Champions League, with Chelsea & Celtic looking like they're going out of the competition.
A youthful Manchester United side travelled to Turkey to face Galatasaray, with an average age of 24. They could only create half-chances, and eventually lost 1-0, losing their 100% record. However, they've already qualified, so it isn't threatening.
Celtic, however, were still contenders for going out, but at the start of the night they only needed a draw to go through. Benfica weren't going down without a fight though. The Portuguese side went ahead, for Celtic to draw level, before finally winning 2-1.
Chelsea lost 3-0 away to Juventus, with their chances of qualification getting slimmer and slimmer, needing a win in their last game and hope Shaktar beat Juve.
