<Reporter> With
only 12,000 spectators allowed at the stadium in the aftermath of Corona 19, a spectacular pre-ceremonial event using computer graphics caught the attention of TV viewers and opened the curtain for the final stage of the dream.
Chelsea knocked out Manchester City with this one blow in an English housefight.
In the 42nd minute of the first half, three passes that interlocked like gears continued, and Havertz sprinted past the goalkeeper with a fantastic run and shook the net.
Havertz, who could not pay the ransom after moving to Chelsea for 112 billion won in transfer fee, cheered by scoring the first goal of the Champions League season at the most important moment.
When the 1-0 victory was confirmed, all Chelsea players embraced and shared joy, lifting their second career trophy in 9 years.
[Habertz/Chelsea midfielder: (You paid all the transfer fee overnight?) I honestly don't care about that.
Now, I am enjoying it by winning the Champions League.]
Tuchel, who was sacked from Paris Saint-Germain last year due to poor performance, succeeded in restoring his honor four months after taking the helm of Chelsea.
The Chelsea squad continued their joy in the locker room with champagne champagne and celebratory dances.
[Tuchel/Chelsea manager: I had to show the best performance, but it didn't need a miracle.
I did it without a miracle.]
Aguero, who left Manchester City at the end of this match, shed tears without hesitation, while Manchester City's dream of winning the Champions League for the first time in history was thwarted.
