Champions League LIVE: Result and final score from City-Sevilla, Chelsea-Dinamo, Juve-PSG and more

The Champions League is done and dusted until February, with the last teams to secure their passage to the knock-outs sealed on Wednesday evening.

Along with a glut of goals, there were one or two surprises still in store until the end - not all of them positives unfortunately - and now clubs will focus on the final pre-World Cup domestic matches, the winter break for some players and even the January transfer window before continental action rolls around once more.

Here are five things we learned from the final night of action in the group stage:

Denis Zakaria scored the winner on his Chelsea debut as Graham Potter’s side finished top of Champions League Group E with a 2-1 victory over Dinamo Zagreb at Stamford Bridge.

A 1-0 defeat at Zagreb on September 6 triggered the sacking of former Blues manager Thomas Tuchel, but Potter saw his side return to winning ways after the weekend defeat to his former club Brighton.

Despite going behind to Bruno Petkovic’s early goal, Raheem Sterling equalised before on-loan Juventus midfielder Zakaria – who has had to wait for a chance to impress, struck.

Zagreb went into the game requiring a win and a RB Salzburg defeat to reach the Europa League, but were unable to get the required result in London.

There was a concerning moment for Chelsea in stoppage time when England international Ben Chilwell was forced off after going down clutching his left hamstring.

Chelsea wrapped up their group campaign in the Champions League with a 2-1 comeback victory over Dinamo Zagreb.

The Blues already knew they would top the group regardless of the result but Graham Potter wanted his team to bounce back after a weekend defeat in the Premier League.

It wasn’t the best of starts therefore when Bruno Petkovic headed in a close-range opener, but Raheem Sterling equalised midway through the first half and Denis Zakaria hammered in the second on his Chelsea debut.

The hosts spurned several further chances to increase their lead as Sterling blazed over and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang hit the crossbar after the restart, but the first-half goals were enough to ensure the Blues finished the group with four straight wins in Europe.

Here are the player ratings from Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.

Try telling Rico Lewis this was a dead rubber. The Manchester City full-back was substituted late on and forced by referee Orel Grinfeeld to make his exit at the touchline furthest from the dugout. He didn’t mind. That only meant the standing ovation was longer and louder, as all four corners of the Etihad stood and serenaded the academy graduate whose first senior goal on his first senior start had equalised and provided the foundations for a comfortable 3-1 victory.

It had been a night ripe for City to experiment, hence Lewis’ inclusion, but it also came with the reminder of a long-established rule over the last seven years: that even just a moment of Kevin De Bruyne’s genius is capable of winning any game. Entering as a second-half substitute, he did not score the decisive goal that broke the back of this game but made it for Julian Alvarez with a special pass that, alongside Lewis’ special goal, made venturing out under a hard Manchester rain worthwhile.

Riyad Mahrez added a third to make the scoreline slightly misrepresent the balance of play. Sevilla led at half-time and were good value for it, repeatedly threatening through centre-forward Rafa Mir, but the resistance of Jorge Sampaoli’s side was broken down after the break. The result mattered little in any case. Whatever happened, City would still top Group G and go to the knock-out stages, while Sevilla would still finish third and drop into the Europa League.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admits he was humbled to become only the second foreign national to be awarded the Freedom of the City.

The German followed Nelson Mandela, in 1994, in being bestowed the honour for his work at the football club and support for local charities.

“I have to be honest, when I first heard this news I had to take a minute to take it in. As you can imagine, I get a lot of different types of news in my job but this was definitely a ‘wow’ moment,” he said.

Aged 22 years and 275 days, Julián Álvarez is the youngest Argentinean to be directly involved in three goals in a single Champions League match since Lionel Messi vs Bayern Munich in April 2009, also under Pep Guardiola (21 years 288 days).

Ben Chilwell’s hopes of playing in the upcoming World Cup are in serious doubt after he limped out of Chelsea’s Champions League win over Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday night.

The full-back has battled through injury over the past 18 months in order to get himself fit for both club and country, and had been slowly finding form for Chelsea ahead of the tournament in Qatar, which begins in less than three weeks on 20 November.

But Chilwell appeared to be holding his hamstring as he was helped from the pitch by Chelsea medics at the end of their 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea won the match at Stamford Bridge but there’s disappointment for the Blues and England as Ben Chilwell had to be helped off the pitch just after the final whistle.

He looks as though he couldn’t walk on the left leg which is a nightmare for the defender with the World Cup just around the corner.

And that’s that. The Champions League group stages come to a close with a few shock results. Here’s how everything finished this evening:

AC Milan 4-0 RB Salzburg

Maccabi Haifa 1-6 Benfica

FC Copenhagen 1-1 Borussia Dortmund

Man City 3-1 Sevilla

Juventus 1-2 PSG

Chelsea 2-1 Dinamo Zagreb

90+2 mins: Joao Mario! His strike from range is exceptional and he fizzes the effort right into the back of the net to give Benfica the goal they need.

Due to the fact that the Portuguese side have scored more goals away from home in the group stages they finish top of the group ahead of PSG!
