Chelsea boss Roberto di Matteo feels their Champions League stunner against Napoli was a historic night.

Chelsea won the second-leg 4-1 to progress 5-4 on aggregate.

"For the club it meant a lot to be still able to play in the Champions League," said Di Matteo after the game.

"And you could see how much it meant to the players. Everybody was delighted that we put in such a big performance.

"I have had some great nights [in football] but it will probably go down in the club's history, coming back from a two-goal deficit from the first leg. You saw from the players and how they performed that they showed the passion and that they care about the club and the supporters. It will give us a big boost for the rest of the season as well.

"The home advantage was important. Napoli are probably stronger at home and they are very dangerous with the transition, but our supporters helped us to win the game and every win will increase the confidence of the team."
