The Road to Championships
Chelsea suffered some setbacks in the group stage, but they successfully reached the knockout stage. In the last 16 stage, they defeated Naples, a strong Italian team, and then eliminated the famous French giants Paris Saint Germain in the eighth finals. In the quarter finals, Chelsea played against the famous Portuguese team Benfica and successfully reached the semi-finals.
The semi-final opponent was the powerful Barcelona, which was considered one of the greatest victories in Chelsea's history. In the first round, Chelsea beat Barcelona 1-0 away from home, but in the second round, they were in trouble. Barcelona has an absolute advantage at home, leading 2-0 for a time. However, in the final stage, Chelsea's Dutch striker Didier Drogba scored a key goal to pull the score to 2-2, and Chelsea advanced to the final by virtue of the away goal advantage.
Finals Night
On May 19, 2012, Chelsea and German powerhouse Bayern Munich launched a fierce competition in the Allianz Arena in Munich. Bayern had a clear advantage at home, but Chelsea insisted on the whole game. However, in the 83rd minute, Bayern striker Thomas Muller broke the deadlock and took the lead for the home team.
Seemingly hopeless, Chelsea showed their tenacity in the final stage. In 90+2 minutes, Chelsea striker Didier Drogba scored a header to equalize the score. The game entered extra time, neither side scored again, and finally entered the penalty shootout.
Heroes appear
The penalty shootout became one of the most important moments in Chelsea's history. Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has become a decisive hero. He saved two penalty kicks from Bayern Munich in the penalty shootout and won the victory for Chelsea.
When Chelsea captain John Terry missed their first free throw, Cech became the team's savior. His outstanding performance not only saved Chelsea, but also won him numerous praises and respect. Chelsea beat Bayern 4-3 on aggregate to become the Champions League champion in 2011-2012.
