Bellingham: Dortmund players pleased with victory over Chelsea

Jude Bellingham says Borussia Dortmund are pleased after their 1-0 win against Champions League opponents Chelsea.

BVB hold an edge in the round of 16 tie courtesy of Karim Adeyemi's winner.

Bellingham said: "It was good. We dominated the first half. They had chances but we were in control for the majority of the first half.

"In the second half we took the foot off the gas and they had more control. We showed how well we can defend and see out games."

On Adeyemi's goal, he stated: "Just speed. We are really confident when he gets the ball one on one. Not many players can stop him. He had a tough time coming here at the start - finding his feet -a nd now he's flying."

On Emre Can's goalline clearance, Bellngham added: "He plays in a position where he gets overlooked. It was another game-winning block. He had a brilliant game."
