Chelsea crowned Champions League winners
Kai Havertz scores the only goal as Chelsea beat Manchester City 1-0 in Porto
Chelsea have won the Champions League for the second time after Kai Havertz's first-half goal earned them a 1-0 victory over Manchester City in Porto.
The German forward rounded Ederson to score the only goal of the game on 42 minutes, as Chelsea claimed their first Champions League title since 2012.
It was a deserved victory for Thomas Tuchel's side, who were the better team for much of the match and created the better chances.
Manchester City, who were playing in their first Champions League final, were disappointing and never really looked like getting back into the game after Havertz's goal.
The victory is a major triumph for Tuchel, who has transformed Chelsea since taking over as manager in January.
It is also a special moment for Havertz, who has struggled to justify his £72m price tag since joining Chelsea last summer.
But the 21-year-old produced a moment of magic when it mattered most to help Chelsea to European glory.
