English pundits hailed the coaching of Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel for their Champions League triumph against Manchester City.
Chelsea won 1-0 in Porto thanks to Kai Havertz's winner.
Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton said on BBC Radio 5 Live: "Perfect in Porto, terrific, they defended so, so well. Terrific from Chelsea. They deserved it, had Werner had shooting boots on, they would have been well out sight.
"Kai Havertz hasn't really turned up this season but he comes up with the all-important goal. They have been so well drilled and get the job done. It's massive for Chelsea and Thomas Tuchel.
"You wondered where he could take this team and he has taken them to Champions League victory. This is the one Pep Guardiola wanted to win and didn't do enough on the night.
"Tuchel was fired up. Last season was a sore one for him. It's all well and good jumping up and down but [the result is] more to do with the work he is doing in the changing room. They have gone up a dozen notches since he came in."
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand said on BT Sport: "To do what he has done coming halfway through the season is nothing short of a magician.
"They've had to come together as a squad, a lot of doubt was put on them as a team and as individuals but now they have marched on.
"He has come into this country and played Pep Guardiola's side three times this season and won all three."
Former Chelsea player Joe Cole, speaking to BT Sport: "To sit where we are sat among the fans, every man from [goalkeeper Edouard] Mendy to the final man in the squad is a hero.
"That was an unbelievable performance. All these boys are heroes to me now."
