Half-Time analysis for Chelsea

Schwarzer: No chance on the Adrian goal, and just minutes before he had saved a Koke free kick.

Ivanovic: Trying to get forward as much as possible, but Koke and Felipe Luis have made that difficult for him so far.

Cahill: Booked for a lunging tackle on Diego Costa.

Terry: Made a superb, headed clearance midway through the first half.

Cole: Has completed 97% of his passes after 45 minutes.

Ramires: The Brazilian has so far thrown himself into five tackles.

D.Luiz: Putting himself about all over the pitchโ€”winning tackles and making interceptions.

Azpilicueta: Picked up an assist on the Torres opener.

Willian: His superb work down the right allowed Chelsea to open the scoring.

Hazard: Lost his concentration at the far post when Juanfran set up Adrian.

Torres: Made a lovely deflection on Azpilicuetaโ€™s pass and didnโ€™t celebrate against his former club.

Full-Time analysis for Chelsea

Schwarzer: Got a piece of Ardaโ€™s effort before the Turkey international converted on the rebound.

Ivanovic: Completely outplayed by Koke and Felipe Luis.

Cahill: Threw himself into five tackles but should have done better on both the Adrian and Arda goals.

Terry: Hard to fault his work-rate, and he won all of his aerial duels.

Cole: Withdrawn just nine minutes after the restart in favour of Etoโ€™o.

Ramires: Aside from his tackling, he offered very little over the 90 minutes.

D.Luiz: Hit the crossbar in the second half and was one of his sideโ€™s more committed contributors.

Azpilicueta: Switched to left-back upon Coleโ€™s exit.

Willian: Excellent rate of passing in the final third.

Hazard: Quite clearly not match-fit; twice he lost Juanfran down the left flank.

Torres: Faded after the restart and made way for Ba.

Etoโ€™o: Committed the foul that sent Diego Costa to the spot.

Ba: Only managed a single shot after coming on.

Schurrle: Just nine touches of the ball in a brief cameo.

Half-Time analysis for Atletico Madrid

Courtois: Was well beaten on the Torres goal.

Juanfran: Fantastic ball to Adrian to restore level terms.

Miranda: Distribution was poor, but he made a pair of important tackles in the first half.

Godin: Yet to misplace a single pass.

F.Luis: Combining well with his attacking teammates down the left.

Tiago: Atleticoโ€™s captain on the night has completed 93% of his passes.

M.Suarez: Has so far won all of his aerial battles.

Adrian: Made no mistake from in close as he beat Schwarzer

Koke: Taking all of Atleticoโ€™s set pieces; has generally been their best attacking player.

Turan: Adding a physical aspect to the Atletico attack but has already committed a pair of fouls.

D.Costa: Just 15 touches through 45 minutes.

Full-Time analysis for Atletico Madrid

Courtois: His heroics in the final few minutes will unfortunately be overlooked.

Juanfran: Ran Hazard, Cole and Azpilicueta into the ground.

Miranda: A much better second half from the 29-year-old.

Godin: Didnโ€™t put a foot wrong, even as Chelsea attempted to increase their pressure on the Atletico goal in the final minutes.

F.Luis: Touched the ball 80 times and completed 94% of his passes.

Tiago: He was Atleticoโ€™s metronome in Gabiโ€™s absence.

M.Suarez: Distribution improved after the restart; he was Atleticoโ€™s answer to David Luiz.

Adrian: His inclusion made his manager look good.

Koke: Perhaps the best player on the park, he touched the ball more than anyone else and was generally involved in everything Atletico created going forward.

Turan: Scored the insurance marker and will be the first Turkish-born player to start a Champions League Finalโ€”should he start.

D.Costa: Fussed around with the penalty spot before converting from 12 yards.

R.Garcia: Put in an efficient 24 minutes after replacing Adrian.

Sosa: Moved the ball around nicely.

Rodriguez: Only 10 touches after coming on with six minutes left in normal time.
