Benfica 1-2 Chelsea: Ivanovic heads dramatic winner to seal Europa League glory. Chelsea both Champions League and Europa League holder at the moment.Reactions;
Rafael Benitez talking to ITV: “It was a great performance in the second half. We had some problems in the first half against a very good team but I’m really pleased for the players, for everyone involved.
“We didn’t have the legs. We had to adjust and push them and in the end they deserve it because they’ve been working so hard the whole season.
“Obviously I’ll be proud because it was not easy. We have been talking about this all the time. So really pleased, really proud.”
“I’m very happy,” Fernando Torres told ITV.
“It was hard getting here [Chelsea’s route to the final] and it was a
very tough game – maybe Benfica deserved to win – but at the end the
individual quality made the difference.”“The first half was not good enough at all, in any way. The intensity, the concentration. We talked about changing [at half-time] our mentality to win a final, it’s a final. Maybe this would be the only chance to win a Europa League so you saw a difference in the second half.
Torres’ future with Chelsea has been in doubt recently after the club were linked with other strikers, but the Spaniard has no intention of leaving anytime soon.
“I signed a five-and-a-half-year contract so I hope to stay for at least this time,” he added.
We the Champions! Congrats to Me...
