Chelsea Champions League Tickets

As one of the most recognised clubs in the world, Chelsea FC have regularly featured in this competition over the past two decades. The Blues had played UCL football just once prior to the Roman Abramovich takeover in 2003, but they would lift this trophy twice during the 19-year reign of the Russian billionaire.

Stamford Bridge comes to life on Champions League nights, often boasting a near-capacity 40,000 spectators. The home faithful have been privileged to see some truly exceptional talents on display over the years. John Terry, Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, and Petr Cech are just a few of the many world-class players who've flourished with Chelsea FC in the UEFA Champions League.

The Blues clinched a maiden Champions League title in 2012, after coming from behind to defeat Bayern Munich. Didier Drogba cancelled out Thomas Müller's opener to send the UCL final to extra-time and then penalties, as Chelsea got the better of their German counterparts at the Allianz Arena.

Chelsea reclaimed Europe's top prize in 2021, pipping Premier League rivals Manchester City in the UCL final. CFC had also reached the semi-finals in 2013/14, but ultimately bowed out to Atletico Madrid.

There've been a number of memorable moments in the Champions League featuring Chelsea, perhaps none more so than the scenes in (and after) the semi-final tie between the Blues and FC Barcelona in 2009. CFC were controversially denied two penalties in the second leg at Stamford Bridge, as Andres Iniesta's late goal proved sufficient for the Catalan club to progress to the UEFA Champions League final.

A more joyful occasion for Chelsea supporters would be the 2011/12 Champions League final, in which the Blues produced a marvellous comeback to defeat a much-favoured Bayern outfit. Petr Čech kept out Arjen Robben's penalty kick in extra-time, before also denying Ivica Olić and Bastian Schweinsteiger in the resulting shootout.

CFC ascended to the throne of European football again in 2021, thanks to Kai Havertz's solitary goal in the final versus Man City. Thomas Tuchel had only been Chelsea manager for four months but he managed to outwit Pep Guardiola in the opposite dugout at Estádio do Dragão.
