Amazing. What a great game. It would be great if you could show the Chelsea 4-2 Liverpool game in this FA Cup run. I was at the match but have never seen it on TV.
My first year as Chelsea fan... When Zola, Vialli and Di Matteo gave beautiful play under Ruud Gullit as Player Manager...Chelsea start to win many trophies later...
First started supporting Chelsea in 95-96 but this is a Classic game which sticks out for me as I felt the joy of watching us lift the FA Cup would of been round 11years old at the time still sticks in my memory to this day we have been treated to watch some amazing Teams, Player's over the yrs💙CFC🏆👏
3 players on the bench, Matteo & Zola, everyone not on there smartphones b/c they weren't around back then! Good stuff! ....oh and Chelsea lifting a trophy after many years.
I started love Chelsea after seeing Zola. I am sad, he did not agree to play at least one more year when Jose came for first time. Well...Zola, Terry, Cech and Lampard are players for my "I saw at least at once" XI ever
Jose took over a year later.... Zola was leaving in summer 2003 and had agreed with Cagliari just before Roman took over and wouldn't renege on his promise
Este partido cambio la historia del chelsea fuel el primer título de una nueva era, desde ese día empezaron a ganar campeonatos, convirtiéndose en uno de los clubes más grandes de Inglaterra
Chelsea were only the rise after this being their first trophy in 26 years as the now late vialli played a huge part in getting them some silverware in the late 90s.

Hopefully werner will teach tammy the rest of his striking knowledge and push him to be a world class striker along side werner himself, we can only hope💙💙
Depends on your team. Chelsea got off to a great start because Ben Roberts was too busy effing about with his Alice Band to worry about his position for that first goal. As I said at the time, GOD HATES MIDDLESBROUGH.
What a Iconic Chelsea team... Lebouf, di Matteo, Dennis wise, Zola and of course the great manager Ruud Gullit
Petrescu 💙💙💙
The day that the good times started coming back to Stamford Bridge. And they haven't stopped since.
The first goal, and the Zola assist for the second 🔥
Agreed
It was such a sweet strike
Di Matteo... the miracle maker...!!!
Thanks for that UCL
I was ten years old when I watched this on our black and white TV in Kisumu, Kenya and I have not looked back since.
We've been Chelsea since...
And we're still Chelsea....
Go bluuuuees🔵🔵🔵
WHAT a goal from di matteo
Amazing. What a great game. It would be great if you could show the Chelsea 4-2 Liverpool game in this FA Cup run. I was at the match but have never seen it on TV.

The day when the chelsea success train started,
Legend
Where are all the Arsenal fans saying our club started in 2003?
Inside the cave
before Abramovich
0 Champions League
0 Premier League
0 Europa League
Well they weren't wrong lol
@@الموالي̂̄-ذ9د cup winners cup and super cup?
@@الموالي̂̄-ذ9د1 league title. Football didn’t start in 1992.
Clearly they don't know Chelsea was the first English club to ever qualify for Europe if that's the case..
Italians who contributed to Chelsea success: Di Matteo, Zola, Anchelotti, Conte.
Vialli also
Jose mourinho?
eevee nesh7 pretty sure Jose is Portuguese
Enzo Maresca hopefully
Whoa. He had hair!
The one of two reasons I start supporting Chelsea, Matteo Goal and Zola!
This was the first football match I watch, I support Liverpool, but sat with my dad watching this as it was a final.
My first year as Chelsea fan... When Zola, Vialli and Di Matteo gave beautiful play under Ruud Gullit as Player Manager...Chelsea start to win many trophies later...

Go Chelsea Go....!!!
Zola the magician.
Why were there only three subs on the bench?
That was the rule back then
Yet people saying we had no success before 2003
Miss the old days
Saturday 17th May 1997
I remember watching this live (as a bori fan) literally destroyed all joy instantly lol
2020/2021: 4-1-3-2
Kepa
James dayot rudi chilwell
Kante
Ziyech mount pulisic
Abraham werner
Subs: cumming, tomori, azpi, kovacic, odoi, benrahma, gilmour
Have you forgotten Ruben exists? He walks into our lineup when fit, and he's fit again now. Great XI though
Is Werner really joining us 😊
chelsea❤❤❤
Ruud Gullit 🔥
And we all thought "That's the last time we'll see Robbie DiMatteo do something outrageously unexpected"
Di Matteo gave us Champions league 😊☺
And I thought we had no fans before 2004
You watch some of that football and think wow!

Haha Frank Leboeuf and Craig Burley both played for Chelsea at the same time.
Di mateo have hair
Let's have it right if it wasn't for Ken Bates there would be no Success after the previous Owners ran the Business into the Ground
True that but he was about to do the same as the Mears family, were it not for Roman's takeover
Werner is coming to chelsea 🔥🔥🔥 abraham psychical striker werner quick striker and then armando broja the academy talent
Hopefully werner will teach tammy the rest of his striking knowledge and push him to be a world class striker along side werner himself, we can only hope💙💙

Ooo
Depends on your team. Chelsea got off to a great start because Ben Roberts was too busy effing about with his Alice Band to worry about his position for that first goal. As I said at the time, GOD HATES MIDDLESBROUGH.
