Chelsea love a bit of Champions League drama.

An eight goal thriller between two of the Premier League's most exciting sides in an all English quarter final. The Blues fought back from 2-0 down to go through, as defender Alex blew Stamford Bridge away with a disgustingly powerful free-kick goal.

Despite the best efforts and sheer wizardry of Ronaldinho - who put away an obscene, one step shot from the edge of the box - Chelsea snuck into the quarter final in an incredible contest.

Jose Mourinho's side were on top of the world and on course for back-to-back league titles, gifting fans some seriously iconic moments like this one.
