Mount Mason's historical moment.
Chelsea did a lot of work in Porto as Seville's final whistle approached. Thomas Tuchell's team was not bubbled, but they were very effective and scored their only meaningful shot on Mount Mason.
The Blues scored away, and they are confident that they will enter the second leg next week. But it was much better later.

Porto's defense was almost dangerous when Matteo Kovacic passed the ball hopefully in five minutes. Jesus Corona should handle the ball easily. On the contrary, his touch was loose, and suddenly Ben Chilwell.
The 24-year-old player only had two contacts and broke into the restricted area of Porto, one-on-one with Augustine Marsecein. It was a heavy moment when the English defender took over the ball. Chilwell waved his hips, took the ball around Marchesing, and then went home with an empty net.

Thomas Tutcher defeated Porto at Mount Mason, Ben Chilwell.
In an instant, countless Chelsea fans were sent back in 2012, because the ending of Chilwell is creepy reminiscent of Fernando Torres's production against Barcelona at Camp Nu.
The famous Spanish goal that night ensured the Blues' position in the 2012 Champions League final. Of course, Chelsea won.
Chilwell's strike did not have the same effect as Torres. But it made the Blues the peak of their first Champions League semi-finals since 2014.
Mount Mason's historical moment
There is no doubt that Mason Mount will be named Chelsea Player of the Year. The 22-year-old player is not only the most consistent performer of the club under the leadership of Frank Lampard and Tutcher, but also improves the level of the game under the latter's leadership.
Mount's strike last night was a slur. In one move, he controlled Jogiño's pass and turned it into space. It gave him time to measure and then drill the ball into the corner of Marchin.
