ON a night of nerves and tension at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea finally did something they had not managed for a whole 70 days.
Incredibly, the Blues scored TWO goals in a match for the first time since they beat Bournemouth on December 27 with a victory which might just change the course of their season.
Kai Havertz's decisive penalty coolly slotted in at the second attempt - put Chelsea into the Champions League quarter-finals as they staged a gutsy fightback to overcome Borussia Dortmund.
And you could not possibly feel some happiness for Graham Potter (right) who has somehow come through such a difficult and testing time as Chelsea boss.
These last two games against Leeds last Saturday and now Dortmund - were supposed to decide Potter's future and, despite that pressure on his shoulders, his side have won them both.
Two wins in the space of four days has suddenly changed the whole mood at Stamford Bridge from one of gloom and despair to hope and celebration.
