00:09A 40,000 plus sellout and an estimated TV audience running into hundreds of millions worldwide.
00:17At stake, a place in the semi-finals of the world's most important club competition.
00:23The Blues were the outsiders against Barcelona in the last round. Tonight against Bayern Munich, they're the favourites.
00:32Eidegger-Johnson has slotted in so well to this midfield role he's been given in recent months.
00:39Coneybatch's head didn't go very far, picked up by Duff. And Cole, deflection, in.
00:44Perfect start for Chelsea, inside four minutes. Joe Cole will claim it. The deflection took it past Kahn.
00:52And the breakthroughs come early.
00:54What a great start for Chelsea. Couldn't have hoped for anything better.
00:58A bit fortunate, it's ricocheted off one of the defenders. I didn't quite see who it was, but what a
01:03great start for Chelsea.
01:04Couldn't have hoped for anything better.
01:07Well, no chance for the goalkeeper who was left completely wrong-footed. It's come off Lucio.
01:16Hardreeves. Oh, well, far post. Oh, mistake. Zay Roberto should have been punished there, Glenn Johnson.
01:23And Chelsea have got away with it. He's got caught in two minds, and that was the result. And he's
01:27lucky to get away with that. Very lucky to get away with that.
01:31At the other end. Corner count is close. The game is close too. Duff with the corner. Good Johnson. That
01:39was unselfish. And what a good strike from Lampard.
01:42Kahn was a spectator. Great strike. We all know Lampard's got a great two-feet striking ability. And he's pinged
01:48one, and that was inches wide. Inches.
01:54Well, it's half-time in the first of those 90-minute games, and Joe Cole's deflected shot just four minutes
02:00in.
02:01It's the only difference between the sides. It came off Lucio. No blame attached to him.
02:06But Chelsea have a precious lead. Zay Roberto spurning a chance to draw Bayern level after Glenn Johnson's mistake.
02:13Half-time then at Stamford Bridge. It's Chelsea 1, Bayern Munich 0.
02:20Now, Drogba. He's got Eidegger-Johnson waiting in the middle. Nice touch. This is Degie and Duff.
02:27And great start by Kahn.
02:31Duff thought he might have scored. Certainly the crowd thought he ought to have done. And Kahn to the rescue.
02:38And you've got to say that Dany Duff will look back on that and think he probably should have scored.
02:42And Bama, his big favourite here, I would suggest.
02:48There he goes. Straight into the wall. Zay Roberto. Good save by Cech. Schweinsteiger scores.
02:551-1. The South-Nachrist has done the trick for Bayern Munich. Cech couldn't keep it out.
03:01And Jan-Bastium Schweinsteiger has given Bayern Munich a crucial away goal.
03:07That's the one thing Chelsea didn't want to give away tonight. And we're a bit slow to the rebound. And
03:14we've got to punish for it.
03:18Here is Glenn Johnson.
03:24It's a Rawls-Drogba who won the flick again. Lampard! 2-1 Chelsea!
03:30Brad Lampard scores the lead! And didn't he take it well? For the umpteenth time dropper's flick. And this time,
03:40Chelsea have their reward.
03:42Well done. Long ball by Johnson. Drogba done a great job in the air. He's picked out Lampard on the
03:49run.
03:49He's got across the defender. He's got it down to Lampard. With the left foot as well. Not his favoured
03:54foot.
03:54And he's picked out the bottom corner. Great strike. 2-1 Chelsea.
04:05Duff.
04:06He's a try!
04:08Following stop by Cernot.
04:10That's where he had. Very quickly away to his right.
04:13That was travelling.
04:20Rawls-Drogba who got the flick again. It's reached Damian Duff!
04:24Just too many defenders in the way. Fring's got it clear. Not very far.
04:28McAlealy.
04:30There's no flag here.
04:32And he's in!
04:33What a tremendous strike! Lampard again!
04:37Bayern stood and waited. The flag never came.
04:40And Helberg up for a finish. 3-1 Chelsea.
04:44Picked out Lampard. Great finish. He still had a lot to do with bats to goal.
04:49He swiveled on a sixpence and put it in the far corner. Great finish.
04:52That is phenomenal skill from Lampard.
04:56It is well worth seeing again. On the chest.
04:58The little spin and the half folly into the corner.
05:02That is stunning.
05:08And the artillery up again.
05:11Lampard's delivery.
05:12He got the touch.
05:13And they've got the goal from Didier Drogba.
05:16A real scramble in the six-year-old box.
05:19And Didier Drogba surely now has put Chelsea into the semis.
05:24And we've still got the second net to come. 4-1.
05:28Terrific save from Karn from Ander Gudjonsson's effort.
05:31Drogba was not going to be denied.
05:34For no more than a couple of yards out.
05:37Bang.
05:39Mehmet Schoel will take.
05:42Number four set originally.
05:44Back across the box. And the referee's given a penalty.
05:47It's a penalty to Bayern Munich.
05:50In the second minute of stoppage time.
05:52And he had a really good view of that.
05:56This to put it back to 4-2.
06:00Plenty of pressure.
06:01And they have a lifeline Bayern Munich.
06:04Michael Ballack scores.
06:06But it is 4-2.
06:17There is no more time to act.
06:19Well it's a terrific performance from Chelsea.
06:22Michael Ballack's late penalty is taken.
06:25Just a little of the gloss off it.
06:28But what went before was terrific.
06:30Frank Lamport scored twice.
06:33The second of them.
06:34Quite stunning.
06:35Joe Cole started it off.
06:38And Chelsea.
06:39And were pegged back to 1-1.
06:41When Schweinsteiger scored.
06:43Then rattled three goals into the next 20 minutes.
06:48Drogba got the fourth.
06:49It should be enough.
06:51But Chelsea will take nothing for granted.
06:54Even though.
06:54They've beaten Bayern Munich here.
06:57By four goals to two.
07:05And then went back to another 10 minutes.
07:10Of course.
07:12It's a very good feeling.
07:13To be able to get out.
07:13But the third at the morning is a full Boat.
07:13To be able to get out.
07:13We will come to the next 20 minutes.
07:13And another 2-3.
07:14So that's where you are going.
07:15And one is going to go back to this.
