Andreas Christensen on Munich memories and the key to tonight's final

29 May 2021


Andreas Christensen's Chelsea journey began shortly after we lifted the
European Cup in Munich, and ahead of our next final in the competition the
defender has recalled some of his Champions League memories.

Christensen joined Chelsea from Brondby in his native Denmark ahead of the
2012/13 campaign. So impressive were his performances for our youth teams
he was named on the bench for our final league fixture of the season, at
home to Everton, just a couple of weeks after his 17th birthday.

A year earlier, the defender was an especially interested spectator as we
defeated Bayern Munich in their own backyard.


'I was with the Danish youth team and we were all watching it together,'
he remembered. 'Some of the guys were huge Chelsea fans. I knew I was
going to sign and it was just something that gave me hope for the future.
Now we are in the final I can't wait to see what happens.


'My dad was a goalkeeper playing for Brondby, so I've always been a
football fan and when I was allowed to stay up and watch the Champions
League finals when I was a kid it was always great. I had something to
speak about to my friends.


'Football has always been part of my life and it's been a dream when
watching these finals to be in one myself.'


Christensen impressed in both legs of our semi-final victory over Real
Madrid before he picked up an injury in the next league game, a win
against tonight's opponents Manchester City.

He is back to full fitness now and his availability will leave Thomas
Tuchel with a tough decision to make, but whatever happens the Dane is
clear on what Chelsea's strategy should be in the biggest game of them
all.


'We know they like to keep the ball so we try and take it from them and
play our game,' he said. 'We've stepped up to the occasion and we have
been doing good and trying to play our game.


'I know people say we can use the wins over Man City as something but the
final is always different. It's a one-off game and anything can happen,
even like the final against Leicester. Anything can happen, and we just
have to step up and play our game.'
