Mourinho eyes Champions League progress

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes it is vital that the club progress to the knockout stages of the Champions League as it will benefit their exciting young players.

Despite being the defending champions, the Blues failed to make it past the group stages last term, with them having to make do with a place in the Europa League, a competition they eventually won, justifying their status as betting favourites in the odds.

However, the return of the ‘Special One’ has generated a new buzz around Stamford Bridge and they are now expected to challenge for success on all fronts, despite a Matchday One loss to Basel at home.

European glory is what ambitious owner Roman Abramovich craves the most though and Mourinho believes playing in the latter stages of the Champions League will only boost his side’s development.

“We want to qualify for the next stage,” the Portuguese coach said. “If you ask me for my objective, I just want to qualify for the next group stage. It’s important for the kids.

“It’s important for everyone. We start the match with four players under 22. And that, as we think in the club and the evolution of the club, is very important to play in a big stage.”

The last few years have seen somewhat of a change in direction for the West Londoners with them now looking to sign exciting young talent from around the globe, rather than fork out extortionate amounts on world stars.

The summer arrivals of Andre Schurrle and Willian, combined with the likes of Juan Mata, Eden Hazard and Oscar means Chelsea now have an attack that can not only compete with Europe’s best, but also may well be able to dominate in years to come.

Champions League final against Bayern Munich will be a special occasion - Borussia Dortmund Manager Jurgen Klopp

Ahead of the Champions League final,  Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp believes the 'all-German' Champions League final at Wembley will be a "special" occasion.

"If this is my only final and I die in 60 years, it won't have been so bad," said Klopp.

Klopp's team face Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich on Saturday.

The match will be the first time two German clubs have contested the final of either the European Cup or Champions League.

Bayern Munchen humiliate Barcelona with 4-0 win

What a match it was last night at Allianz Arena, Munich and those who witnessed it would remember for a long time.

Many thought Barcelona will prove to be a stubborn opponent to Bayern when the two met last night of their Champion League semi final match of the first leg. But it turned out to be a simple one sided game with Bayern completely dominating the match for complete two halves.

Mueller struck right in the 25th minute to open the account for the Germans. But most of the activity came in the second half, when just four minutes after the second half began Gomez added another goal to lead the match 2-0.

The quest for more goals for the Germans never died as a third goal came in 73rd minute by Robben. And finally to seal the fate of the Barca, Mueller struck for the second time just eight minutes before the final whistle blew and cemented the German victory over Barca 4-0.

The ruthless humiliation of Barcelona by Bayern shows the growing German power in European football as it was the worst Barca defeat in Europe since they were beaten by the same scoreline by Dynamo Kiev in 1997, and no team has lost the first leg of a European Cup tie by four or more goals and progressed to the next round.

Ronaldo Takes Real Madrid to Champions League Last Four for Record 24th Time

Ronaldo rejoices his goal over Galatasaray

It was Cristiano Ronaldo's day when Real Madrid played their Champions League quarterfinal match against Galatasaray last evening.

Although the match ended in 3-2 in favour of Galatasaray, Real Madrid made it 5-3 on aggregate to reach the last four stage for a record 24th times.

Ronaldo opened the account for Real Madrid in the 8th minutes and then rested and waited like a hungry lion to strike at the right moment.

Meanwhile Galatasaray scored three goals in the second half. Eboue struck in the 57th minute, while Sneijder and Drogba scored a goal each at a minute's interval in the 71st and 72nd minute.

And then they left the match for Ronaldo to win over. Ronaldo struck just before the final whistle in the 90th minutes as he drilled past Fernando Muslera in injury-time - almost 90 minutes after seemingly ending their hopes with the opener.

The home crowd erupted as they sensed a remarkable upset, but in truth Galatasaray failed to capitalise as Mourinho brought on Raul Albiol for midfielder Mesut Ozil to stifle the hosts.

Real Madrid knocks out Manchester United from Champions League

Yesterday was a big day for the Real Madrid as they knocked out Manchester United 2-1 in a thrilling but controversial match of Champions League at the Old Trafford.

The loss ended Red Devils' Champions League ambitions  in controversial circumstances that left manager Sir Alex Ferguson and the rest of Red Devils enraged at Old Trafford.

United looked on course for a place in the quarter-finals at Real Madrid's expense after Sergio Ramos's own goal just after half-time gave them a platform to build on the 1-1 draw from the first leg at the Bernabeu.

The tie was transformed by Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir's decision to send off Nani for an aerial challenge on Real Madrid defender Alvaro Arbeloa after 56 minutes - a red card that reduced Ferguson and his players to fury.

Jose Mourinho's side, a subdued force until then, took advantage ruthlessly with two goals in three minutes from ex-Tottenham midfield man Luka Modric and former United golden boy Cristiano Ronaldo to move into the last eight.

Mourinho now moves on towards his target of a third Champions League with three different clubs while United must concentrate on domestic matters as they close in on a 20th title with a commanding 12-point lead in the Premier League and a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

AC Milan outscore Barcelona 2-0 in Champions League

Last evening was a great day for AC Milan as it completely stunned and outscored Barcelona with a 2-0 win.

AC Milan's first win over Barcelona in more than eight years puts Milanese in prime position to advance to the Champions League quarterfinals.

It was Kevin-Prince Boateng and Sulley Muntari's scored second-half goals, that led the AC Milan to a 2-0 victory in the first leg of the second round of the Champions League.

It was certainly a bad day for the Barcas, who seeking their fifth European title and fourth in eight years, had not lost by two goals since a 3-1 defeat to Real Betis in the Copa del Rey on Jan. 19, 2011. The second leg of the total-goals series will be in Spain on March 12.

The only other time this season Barcelona was shut out was by Benfica in the last match of the group stage, after advancement to the knockout rounds had been assured.

Champions League tie played in England 'was fixed' - alleges Europol

While cricket generally comes under lot of criticim for match fixing charges - but a new pandora box has now opened bring footbal match fixing out of it.

It has been alleged that Champions League tie played in England is one of 680 matches across the world investigators say was fixed. Besides, some 425 match officials, club officials, players and criminals are suspected of being involved.

The claims have been made by the Europol in a news conference held in The Hague, Netherlands.

European police did not reveal the identity of the match they believe was corrupt in England.

But Europol did say that they had uncovered an organised crime syndicate based in Asia that was co-ordinating the operation.

Other than Champions League, in Germany-based matches alone, criminals wagered £13.8m (16m euros) on rigged matches and made £6.9m in profits. Officials fear this is as the "tip of the iceberg."

However, it seems that neither FIFA nor UEFA were taken into confidence while initiating such an inquiry by Europol.

A spokesman for The FA said it was "not aware of any credible reports into suspicious Champions League fixtures in England, nor has any information been shared with us.

Europa League likely to be scrapped and replaced with Champions League having 64 clubs

European football's governing body UEFA is considering ditching the Europa League in favour of extending the Champions League from 32 to 64 teams.

"We're discussing it. We will make a decision in 2014. Nothing is decided yet," UEFA president Michel Platini told French newspaper Ouest-France.

The decision is likely for the reason that the Europa League has been criticized by some since it replaced the UEFA Cup in 2009 and exists in the shadow of the more lucrative Champions League. and the fact that the Champions League is far more financially beneficial, for UEFA and the clubs concerned, than Europe's second-tier tournament.

-->

An extension of the group stages to a 64-team format could see seven English clubs qualify for the competition rather than the current four, and increase the number of Scottish teams participating from two to five.

UEFA is looking at changing the format of European competitions from 2015.

Chelsea managed to keep Bayern at bay until the 83rd minute when Thomas Muller netted, but powerful striker Diddier Drogba scored a thumping header to send the game into extra-time. Bayern’s Arjen Robben then had a spot-kick saved by Petr Cech, early on in extra time before Drogba tucked away the winning penalty in the shoot-out to hand his side the trophy.

Ramires, who missed the final through suspension, told ESPN Brazil: “I always said that Chelsea deserved to be respected. We managed to be strong in the Champions League.

Chelsea are Champions

Chelsea stunned Bayern Munich in a dramatic penalty shoot-out at the Allianz Arena to win the Champions League for the first time.

Thomas Mueller's late header put Bayern on the brink of victory on home territory but Didier Drogba levelled things up with a bullet header at the death before coolly converting the decisive spot-kick.

The tournament which gave Chelsea their greatest agony when they lost on penalties to Manchester United four years ago in Moscow has now delivered the greatest glory in their 107-year history.

Juan Mata missed Chelsea's first penalty but David Luiz, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole were all successful. Philipp Lahm, Mario Gomez and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer were all on target for Bayern.

The momentum shifted decisively when Cech denied Ivica Olic and Bastian Schweinsteiger hit the post to leave Chelsea on the brink and present Drogba with his moment of destiny.

Bertrand in line for shock start

Roberto Di Matteo is considering the gamble amid continued uncertainty over Florent Malouda's fitness, with the Frenchman still suffering from a hamstring strain sustained against Blackburn Rovers last Sunday.

Bertrand, who has never played in the Champions League, was not even in Chelsea's squad for the group stage, and has most commonly been used this season as Ashley Cole's understudy at left-back.

However, the 22-year-old played 47 minutes in midfield against Blackburn, and has been used there in training this week.

He is likely to start if Chelsea's fitness coach Chris Jones deems Malouda unable to play 90 minutes.

Mourinho wants Chelsea to win Champions League

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho wants Chelsea to beat Bayern Munich in the Champions League final after his side lost to the German club on penalties.

Chelsea progressed to the final by beating Barcelona, despite playing most of the second leg with 10 men.

"I obviously want Chelsea to win. They were heroes to beat Barcelona with 10 men," said the former Blues boss.

It may be added that Jose Mourinho's own Real Madrid - who beat La Liga rivals Barca at the weekend - were unable to find a winner and were undone by a Bayern side who were able to field rested players after Borussia Dortmund wrapped up the Bundesliga.
