By Robert Woodward LONDON (Reuters) - A late goal by Basel's Mohamed Salah condemned Chelsea to a shock 1-0 defeat in the Champions League on Tuesday although the 2012 title winners still qualified for the knockout stages. Basel's double over the English side gives them eight points in Group E, one fewer than Chelsea. They visit Schalke 04, who drew 0-0 with Steaua Bucharest and have seven points, next month to decide which one joins Chelsea in the last 16. Barcelona, without Lionel Messi but already qualified, lost 2-1 at Ajax Amsterdam after conceding two first-half goals but almost turned the game around once the home side's Joel Veltman was sent off three minutes into the second period.
