Di Matteo hails Chelsea brace

Last night victory for Stamford Bridge Club Chelsea has spurred positive reactions from fans and football pundits all over.

But the one who could not hide his elation with the hard fought qualification against Italian club Napoli is the new coach of Chelsea Roberto Di Matteo who said last night with so much joy that his side has made history as the club has progressed into the quater finals of the UEFA Champions League after a slim visctory but well-fought victory of 5-4 aggregate in match which also ran into extra-time.

Chelsea were 3-1 down when going into the stage of the last 16 on wednesday on aggregate as the first leg which took in Naples ended in a defeat, but Chelsea showed how far they could go to achieve victory  as the Blues emergeed winners of the night at Stamford Bridge.

Di matteo said it was fantastic leap by the squad as they delivered a fantastic game and that was waht made the difference as it was an outstanding performance by every member of the squad.

Walter Mazzarri was disappointed Napoli’s European adventure had come to an end as he admitted that his side lacked the experience needed in this kind of competition.

Mazzarri said Chelsea were clinical, as is to be expected from a team packed with world class players.

Perhaps this might be a turnaround the Stamford Bridge Clubs needs as with the coming of Roberto Di Matteo.
