# Chelsea: Fans rave about Cesar Azpilicueta after win over Ajax

**Chelsea full-back Cesar Azpilicueta marked his 350th appearance for the Blues with a win over Ajax in the Champions League last night.**

Frank Lampard’s side left it late to secure the win in Amsterdam, with substitute Michy Batshuayi finding the back of the net in the 86th minute to ensure the west London club made it two wins on the bounce in the Champions League.

The Blues lie top of [Group H](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/champions-league/table) after three matches and now head into this weekend’s clash against Burnley in positive form having won their previous [six games](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/matches/results) in all competitions.

Azpilicueta put in a solid display for Chelsea against the Dutchmen last night, keeping a clean sheet on such a landmark personal occasion.

The Spaniard joined the Blues from Marseille in 2012 and is now club captain; he has started all twelve matches in all competitions this season under the guidance of his former teammate Frank Lampard, with his performance last night earning him credit among these Chelsea fans on Twitter:
