Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo is sweating on the fitness of Oscar after the Brazil midfielder’s dazzling display in the 2-2 draw against Juventus was marred by a nasty injury. Oscar marked his first Chelsea start with a first half brace, including a sublime solo effort, but the Champions League holders were forced to settle for a point from their Group E opener after blowing a two-goal lead at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday. And to make matters worse, the 21-year-old’s command performance came to a premature conclusion when he was forced off midway through the second half after being caught on the ankle by Arturo Vidal. Di Matteo was furious with the challenge and he called on UEFA to review the incident after admitting he was uncertain if Oscar would recover in time for Saturday’s Premier League clash against Stoke. “It was a bad tackle and he had to come off unfortunately. We will have to assess him. He got a knock on his ankle,” Di Matteo said.
