Chelsea surrendered the top spot in the Champions League Group C when they drew 1-1 at home against Spain's Atletico Madrid on Tuesday. "Football is about finishing at the end of the day and it's clear we've not done that in the Champions League this year and we have paid the price," Atletico coach Diego Simeone said. "It's not good to be out of the Champions League but there is still a long season ahead and we will be assessed at the end of it. Atletico took the lead in the 56th minute when Saul Niguez headed in at the far post after flick on by former Chelsea striker Fernando Torres following a corner. The goal was tough on Chelsea who had created a string of chances while Atletico barely troubled the hosts in the first 45 minutes.
