We're through! What a fantastic result after a topsy-turvy few days. We had a gameplan and it showed. In the first half, keep it tight at the back, press high with Fred and hope linkups between WFs and FBs do something. An hour in, after Villarreal were tired, bring on our two best counter-attackers and get the point needed.
Extremely well taken goal from Ronaldo, the awareness to not even take a touch is amazing and Sancho's finish was emphatic as well. Lovely to see him rifle it into the top corner. A huge goal for him to cap off a great performance. I'd give him MOTM if not for DDG. He kept us in the game with that save. Had that gone in, there was a real chance of the players' heads going down. Him and Lindelof deserve praise for the clean sheet. I slated McT for the first half, but as Villarreal tired he grew into the game. Fred played a massive part in both goals too.
I didn't expect any points against Chelsea, but maybe we can get something with the level of organization we saw tonight. Anything can happen if these players play with confidence as they showed in the last 20 mins.
