MoM for me was Ngolo Kante...he was extraordinary all game long!
Special kudos has to go to the coach, Thomas Tuchel for his incredible game tactics.

Well done Chelsea. When you lost to Leicester in the FA Cup, I kind of figured you will win the big one. I suppose it all even out in the end doesnt it?

To think he just returned from injury.

Top man. MOM for sure.

Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

In our hearts you were right. 1 - 0 wasn't close. It was the difference between Chelsea winning it and Pep losing. :D :clap:

It was impossible the moment the two teams were pitted. The worst opponent for City, an Ekenedilichukwu, 6 litre engine, clutch done, straight into 5th gear. No chance.

So happy for Mendy.

Kalani Jr. come out and watch your boy claim his UCL medal.

You can't miss this.

N'Golo Kante is honestly not given the massive amount of credit he deserves. His decision making, his anticipation, his energy, his skillful tackles -- just a joy to watch.

On the contrary, don’t think there’s anyone cortically intact who considers Ngolo King Kante, anything other than a God.

Caballero is crying. What a way to bow out of the game.

Ngolo Kante what a little machine.
That man was a beast today along with Rudiger and Christiansen.

This had nothing to do with Pep per se. He cannot be what he’s not.
Tuchel had the advantage starting out in terms of the tactical formulation.
