Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard described the 1-0 win over Porto as a 'great result' because he believes the side was not at their best. A 48th minute goal from French striker Nicolas Anelka was enough for the Blues to take three points from the Champions League opener, a result that pleased Lampard.
"It was a great result, we weren't at our best tonight but it was a difficult night and we got the win," Lampard told Sky Sports.
"You can't always play top, top football. The ball was skidding about, some of our passing went astray, but we've got to stay strong and win the game, and that's what we did."
Lampard added that once again, the goal for the team was to win the whole competition.
"Every year is different, and every year we go into it we want to win it," he added.
"There's no year we want it more than any other.
"We wanted it last year badly, when we nearly got to the final, and this year we want it badly again."
