Napoli's Champions League campaign came to an end as Chelsea edged to a 3-2 win  at the Stadio Maradona in the last game of the league phase

The visitors broke the deadlock through Enzo Fernandez from the penalty spot before a wondrous goal by Antonio Vergara and a fine finish from Rasmus Hojlund turned the tables.
