Chelsea have been training hard at the Nou Camp ahead of their clash with Barcelona
Antonio Conte’s squad were put through their paces on the Nou Camp pitch last night ahead of their Champions League Round of 16 second leg against Barcelona.
With the tie currently balanced a 1-1, the Chelsea players know they face a tough task getting past Lionel Messi and co to book a spot in the quarter-finals.
Willian was on target in the reverse fixture at Stamford Bridge and seemed in good spirits again as the Brazilian trained with his team-mates last night.
The midfielder was joined in the session by Antonio Rudiger, who had missed Chelsea’s last match against Crystal Palace due to injury.
The German centre-back could return to the starting line-up in a bid to shackle Messi, although Conte is still without David Luiz (knee) and Ross Barkley (hamstring).
