It was easier for me to say that I expected Chelsea to perform well, and they did so by defeating Dortmund with a score of 2-0, so I'm not surprised that they won and advanced to the next round. From their first leg, I could tell that Chelsea played well and created some good opportunities, but they weren't just lucky with goals. Today, I used their first leg to make a prediction, and it turned out that they had more advantages over the other team in today's game at Stamford Bridge. They won their game tactically, and they won it well.

I am impressed by Chelsea tonight.Before scoring their first goal when I saw the stats at 21 minute of the first half I saw Dortmund ball possession of 78% and I thought boy maybe Chelsea is going to be beaten really heavy tonight.When I checked the result then in the end of the first half I saw 1-0 for Chelsea and said yeah just lucky,Dortmund will definitely come back as they are coming from a great form of 11 consecutive victories but no they could not score a single goal and Chelsea got and score one more with a penalty to close the game.Dortmund I think is focused more on trying to win the Bundesliga.
Football is all about strategy; if you can figure out your opponent's tendencies, you can actually win the match. I believe Chelsea did this today; they didn't play to possess the ball; instead, they ran around and produced effective attacks, which I found to be very effective. And that is what many average people occasionally use to defeat powerful teams and people will be say it was luck, luck don't just occur like that in football but team have to come work hard for the lucky to occur. Even though I'm not a Chelsea fan, the team makes my day because my prediction came true.

Chelsea did very well tonight, I didn't expect them to win the match but they did, that's nice of them. For Chelsea to win today's match that mans Chelsea is unbeatable this season and I think their team is now developed. Based on the routine tonight Chelsea will take the league this season,
There is a lot to be learned from Chelsea's last two matches.
-I believe that the new crop of players need time to adjust, Felix is still struggling and Sterling is doing a better job than Felix.
- It is very impactful to see injured players like James Reece, Lotus cheek, Sterling, Chiwell, and Fofana return to the field
-With the exception of Enzo and Badiashile, August's new crop is doing better than January's

I already expected Benfica to have an easy game and they did. They had lost 2-0 away and I thought they wouldn't give much weight to this match, but this time they scored 5 goals and intimidated their opponents.
In the Chelsea-Dortmund match, I expected Chelsea to win and even though it was difficult, Chelsea managed to win and even won the round. They should be congratulated. While they were doing so badly in the league, it is pleasing for them to beat a team like Dortmund in the Champions League which is in form and not easily defeated.

Chelsea will take what? They will take nothing in my opinion. EPL is a dream, they aren't in the FA Cup and already lost EFL Cup, Champions League is their only hope and I believe they will kicked from the race soon. They were lucky to not face one of the biggest club, yet Dortmund won vs them in the first leg but they managed to reverse everything in the second leg. Congrats for them passing to the quarter finals anyway.

I guess Graham Potter will stay a little longer after tonight's performance, but we all know he is not completely secure in the long run Grin
Maybe he is finally getting the team together and understanding the players better or maybe they are just luckier in the champions league than they have been in the premier league. Until the end of the game, I was not convinced that Chelsea were going to finish off well. They had many opportunities that they would have been able to score more than just two goals, luckily for them they did not concede plenty goals when they played away to Dortmund in the first leg. This victory gives Graham Potter some fresh air from the series of losses he has recorded as a coach with Chelsea, and more time for Chelsea team to be stronger before the competition becomes more serious with the last eight teams.

To be fair Chelsea deserved to advance to the next round. Both games taken together Chelsea was the better team, but the circumstances under which they today scored their second goal were a bit weird. I learned a lot about the referee rules as I didn't even now some of the stuff that had to be applied today when the penalty was given.

On stream they said that this game is make or break game for Graham Potter. They are perhaps right when he now also wins a couple of games in the Premier League, but when they keep losing and also get kicked out in the next round of the Champions League, I still think he has not yet reached the dry land.

Todd Boehly was also at Stamford Bridge today and watched the game. He is probably pleased and will give Potter some room to breathe and prepare for the next games. If Chelsea can make it to the semi finals, they could even save the season partially although not starting in the Champions League next year is actually quite the nightmare for Chelsea.

Benfica showed a great performance and shouldn't be underestimated as well. Brugge is not the kind of opponent that should get them into trouble, but still winning 7-1 in both legs is strong.

Dortmund may not have come well prepared for a win today, or they may have been focused on winning the league title, which is why they performed poorly today. As for Chelsea, I never doubt that they will advance to the next round because they have a better record in the Champions League than Dortmund. The possession shocked me before the end of the first half, but I was still optimistic about Chelsea qualifying on this night. Congratulations to Chelsea and hard luck to Dortmund.

Even before the game started, many doubted Chelsea in this match. But the fact is that Chelsea have proven that they deserve to be seeded. and Graham Potter was finally able to smile loosely and the pressure that had been on him must have eased a bit with this result. Dortmund also put up a meaningful fight even though they didn't produce a goal in this match. and I congratulate Chelsea on the win tonight.

Congrats Chelsea success qualify to quarter final after less favorite depend on underperformance and losing one goals on first leg, seems have been habit for English Primer League teams always success managed to quarter final in Champion League last several season. There are not problem about Chelsea inconsistency performance in domestic league and help Primer League have one team in quarter final and waiting another team from Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur will success qualify to quarter final or not?

Public's doubt answered today with Graham Potter success bring Chelsea to quarter final, maybe speculation about his future in Chelsea will stop awhile and looking on how long Chelsea journey in Champion League this season.

I think Chelsea along with majority of the premier league clubs are more focused on the champions league, because their chances in the premiership league has almost been sealed with 3 games left to decide.
I believe Dortmund has good spot in their league, hence why they were not really overwhelmed by the game. The return leg at the Bridge is going to be one hell of an encounter, and Graham Potter gotta be ready.

That is Chelsea advance to Quarter finals after an excellent game by the team. They did very well and should have had many more than this 2 goals. Dortmund were just not creating any clear cut chances and that cause them this game. Brandt injury definitely had his toll on this team. They also made life difficult for themselves by playing high line football which Sterling broke free from couple of times. I don’t get it why the coach didn’t introduce Anthony Modeste when it was clear that his team weren’t winning any aerial battles at the Chelsea’s box.
Chelsea did well and deserved the win but I still think that penalty shouldn’t have been retaken since it was both Chilwell and Felix that were far ahead in the encouragement, poor decision by the referee

Now, Chelsea already leads with 2 goals, the aggregate 2-1 for Chelsea.   Wink
I am surprised that Chelsea played well so far, they seem to be more motivated to qualify for the next stage in UCL. They dominate the match and they become very offensive. If they can keep this good game, no doubt Chelsea to play in the next round. They are playing at home now, they have a bigger chance to qualify.

By the way, Chelsea already made 12 shot attempts, 4 shots on target. While Dortmund only made 5 shot attempts, only 1 shot on target. It is very clear that Chelsea is more superior in this match.
Despite playing so well, They haven't yet killed off the game. 1 Goal from Borussia Dortmund and they are off to Extra time and possible penalties. I guess Graham Potter will stay a little longer after tonight's performance, but we all know he is not completely secure in the long run Grin

Benfica is just too good for Club Brugge. I guess Belgians should be happy to play in this round but quarter final was only a dream. I was away from TV for 15 minutes and Ramos scored two more goals. At this point Brugge need to defend and finish the game without conceding any more goals.

Benfica's performance this night is excellent to be honest and I think they will go all the way to get to the final if they continue with this kind of performance. I think Club Brugge was not prepared for this game because their performance has been very poor since the beginning of the game till the second half and they have been defending poorly that's why Ramos is very lucky to get two great goals within the 15 minutes. It's all over for Club Brugge they can continue next season .
Club Brugger has just scored one goal to console themselves but I see it that they are not fit enough to play Benefica who has five goals, two in the first half and three in the second half. Benefica is a good team and might be able to reach the semifinals or finals.

The match has come to an end with 5-1 defeat on Brugger. This is the first time that Brugger has qualified to the round of 16,they even won some big team in their group to qualify to this stage. Benefica has proven themselves that they will be able to win their quarter final match.

Chelsea is winning their match and Dortmund is playing tirelessly to score a goal but they couldn't convert their opportunities to a goal.

Benfica's performance this night is excellent to be honest and I think they will go all the way to get to the final if they continue with this kind of performance.
Benfica was truly extraordinary in being able to conquer Club Brugge with quite a lot of scores. They seem to easily advance to the next round and this is interesting. The 5-1 victory in the second leg match provided a very large aggregate difference for the two.

Chelsea is leading 2-0,what an interesting second half compared to the first half. Dortmund are gaining possession and struggling to score one goal to make the goal aggregate 2-2 but they haven't broken the deadlock yet.
Chelsea has a higher chance in this match. They have been superior during this match and they make bg pressure to Dortmund. Until now the position is still 2-0 which makes Chelsea lead both on aggregate and also this match result. If the condition is still the same like this, the chance for Chelsea to win this match is much higher because they are able to control the game and be more dominant. But, it is still unpredictable because sometimes, we don't know if Dortmund is able to give a hard counter-attack or not. Although Chelsea has been leading, they must be still careful because the aggregate is still small.

Benfica has indeed met our expectations. Everyone here agrees that Benfica will indeed win easily for the second leg. Because even in the first leg Benfica has done well.

To be honest, without the need for further predictions, this is certain, but indeed they are playing at home, which is scarier than the 2nd leg.
The score is now 5-1 (7-1 on aggregate) and this is a score that is no joke because Benfica really doesn't give Club Brugge the slightest hope.
They are the first club to set foot in the top 4 at the moment.

Benfica scored a total of five goals. Brugge have so far failed to defend and attack. Benfica Ramos scored two goals and with this pair of goals he proved that he has a chance to complete the hat-trick. There is still a little time left for the match to end. The last goal of the match came in the 77th minute. In the 87th minute, Brugge made a call to Meijer. Now they should defend the attacks.

Soon we will witness proof for Chelsea against Dortmund because this is indeed one of the matches that I am quite waiting for, especially with the current conditions Dortmund and Chelsea still have a chance even though Dortmund's aggregate is still superior.
Playing at Stampord Bridge even though it's not too scary at the moment for some clubs but it will still benefit Chelsea should be.

As for Benfica's match against Brugge, I don't expect too much from Brugge because the chances are small, although to qualify for this phase they deserve appreciation.
Potter must be able to prove that he and his team can get through this phase because their chances are still quite wide open especially playing at home, and with yesterday's victory in the English league I hope they will continue the winning trend in the champions league as well to prove they can qualify for next round.

Actually I'm quite sure how Chelsea can respond to the match in the second leg, they will be fully optimistic in this important competition, therefore Potter as a tactician must be able to play a role against Chelsea players.
So far the match has been quite exciting and Chelsea have managed to reverse the aggregate after 2 goals have now nested against Dortmund.
VAR and of course the penalty that was repeated became one of the moments of reversal for Chelsea now. The conditions turned slightly and Dortmund had to try again to equalize on aggregate because this was clearly a crucial condition.
There's still enough time for them because seeing from their current condition they are starting to try to make more and more possession of the ball and attack more but they also shouldn't be complacent because a quick counterattack can dash the hopes of those who want to find a balancer on aggregate.
Chelsea is leading 2-0,what an interesting second half compared to the first half. Dortmund are gaining possession and struggling to score one goal to make the goal aggregate 2-2 but they haven't broken the deadlock yet. I think if Chelsea is not careful this match might end up in PK. It is  an interesting match because the pressure from Dortmund is getting too much on Chelsea as they are losing their opportunities. It is not yet over and I just hope that Chelsea keep the game on this level or else they might miss their chance of qualifying to the quarter finals.
