Chelsea Survives As European Champions

Mr A

It's been Chelsea's dream for nearly a decade and it's finally happened. Based on the stats and the game, it wasn't necessarily deserved, but they've won the day and the tournament.
Bayern Munich came out in force and did everything they could to win it except score. The German frontline was off and couldn't convert numerous chances. Ashley Cole and Petr Cech did their part to make sure nothing was easy for Bayern. And then in the closing moments Drogba came out of nowhere to level it. He went from hero to goat to hero again.

After Cech saved Robben's penalty in the extra time, it started to feel like it was inevitable for the Blues. The penalties started on a rough note for Chelsea, but the post and Cech proved enough again. And then Drogba, after a storied career, stepped up and drilled it home. Chelsea is the champion.

One parting thought: Tottenham fans are hurting since they were just bumped from the Champions League for next year.
