(Reuters) - Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said his players must not "lose their heads" by allowing their 2-0 first-leg advantage over Porto in the Champions League quarter-finals to lull them into a false sense of security heading into Tuesday's return.

Chelsea have one foot in the last four of Europe's elite club competition courtesy of superb individual goals from Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell, but Tuchel insisted he would not set his side out to protect their lead in the 'home' leg in Seville.
