Mateo Kovacic and Kai Havertz both scored two outstanding goals to snap Red Bull Salzburg’s 40-game home winning streak and advance Chelsea to the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League.

Austria-born midfielder Kovacic scored an unassailable left-foot goal from 18 yards during a tense group match in Austria, but Junior Adamu responded after a superb assist from Maximilian Wober.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was denied four chances by Salzburg goalkeeper Philipp Kohn, and Jorginho’s header was wonderfully saved off the line by Adamu.

In Group E, Chelsea has 10 points after five games, four more than Red Bull Salzburg in second place with one game remaining.

If Dinamo Zagreb loses to AC Milan in Croatia later on Tuesday, Potter’s team will be declared the group champions and seeded for the last-16 draw on November 7. (20:00 BST).
