Chelsea FC made it to the final of the Champions League.
The Londoners defeated Real Madrid after the 1-1 draw in the first leg 2-0 (1-0).
With this, coach Thomas Tuchel repeated his success from the previous year.
In 2020, the German reached the final with Paris Saint-Germain, but lost the game 0-1 against FC Bayern.
At the end of the year, the French parted ways with their head coach.
This time Tuchel faces league rivals Manchester City.
The designated English champions with coach Pep Guardiola are the big favorites after his sovereign semi-final victory against PSG on May 29 in Istanbul.
In the second leg against the Spaniards, Tuchel counted on three Germans in the starting line-up with Antonio Rüdiger, Kai Havertz and Timo Werner.
And two of them also took care of the tour.
Havertz hit the crossbar in the 28th minute, Werner executed the rebound with his head to deserve 1-0.

Werner - of all things.
Difficult weeks and months lie behind the attacker.
After numerous missed scoring chances, the national player who came from Leipzig last year had recently been criticized.
Chelsea FC awards the preliminary decision
The Londoners then missed numerous other opportunities.
Havertz should have made the preliminary decision after an hour at the latest.
However, the 21-year-old freely awarded in front of Thibaut Courtois (58th).
And Real's goalkeeper remained the winner against N'Golo Kanté, who missed his high-profile chance (66th).
The disappointing Madrilenians, where Sergio Ramos returned after recovering from injury, remained far too harmless on the offensive to punish Chelsea for their negligence and to force the goal they needed.

Mason Mount finally put an end to the tremors for Chelsea FC with his goal to make it 2-0 five minutes from time.
