Chelsea Football Club’s UEFA Champions League dream was dealt a blow on Tuesday night, as they lost 3-0 to Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park.

The Blues were hoping to take a positive result from the first leg of the Round of 16 tie, but were ultimately outclassed by the German side.

Chelsea manager Graham Potter was left to rue his side’s performance, saying “We must regroup and attack Borussia Dortmund at home. We need to be much better in the return leg”.

The Blues were second best for most of the match, with Dortmund taking the lead through a goal from Erling Haaland in the first half. Raphael Guerreiro and Jadon Sancho added two more in the second half to seal the victory.

Chelsea had a few chances to score, but were unable to find the back of the net.

The result has put Chelsea in a difficult position ahead of the second leg, which will be played at Stamford Bridge.

In the aftermath of the match, Chelsea fans have been discussing the team’s performance and their chances of progressing to the quarter-finals. Some have praised the team’s effort and believe they can turn things around at home, while others have been critical of the team’s lack of attacking intent.

Meanwhile, pundits have been analysing the game and offering their opinions on what Chelsea must do to secure a win in the second leg.

With the return leg just a few weeks away, Chelsea will need to regroup and put in a better performance if they are to progress to the quarter-finals.
