Eden Hazard is prepared to take Chelsea's thrilling 3-3 draw with Roma at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League this evening, but admits that the Blues should not have let slip a two-goal lead over the Italians. 

Antonio Conte's men took the lead with eleven minutes on the clock through David Luiz, before Hazard popped up to make it 2-0 in the 37th minute.




But Roma hit back through former Manchester City defender Aleksandar Kolarov five minutes before half time to head in at the break in touch with the Blues.

Roma then drew level in the 64th minute through another former Manchester City star, Edin Dzeko, and then took the lead as the Bosnian struck again six minutes later.
 


Hazard however ensured that Chelsea would share the spoils when he grabbed his second 15 minutes from time and it ended 3-3.

For Hazard, the point is not to be sniffed at, but the Chelsea star admits his side should not have let slip their lead.

"It is a good result for both teams but when you are 2-0 up at home you must win the game", the Belgian told BT Sport.

"Edin Dzeko is a fantastic striker and we stay first in the group.

"Now we have to play in Rome, but we will try to win the game.

"After two defeats it's not easy to bounce back."

The other game in the group saw Atletico Madrid play out a 0-0 draw in Azerbaijan against Qarabag.
