  Chelsea win 4-3 on penalties
                                       
                                                                                                 Chelsea stunned Bayern Munich in a dramatic penalty shoot-out at the  Allianz Arena to win the Champions League for the first time. 
                  Thomas Mueller's late header put Bayern on the brink of  victory on home territory but Didier Drogba levelled things up with a  bullet header at the death before coolly converting the decisive  spot-kick. 
                  The tournament which gave Chelsea their greatest agony when they       lost on penalties to Manchester United four years ago        in Moscow had now delivered the greatest glory in their 107-year history. 
                  Juan Mata missed Chelsea's first penalty but David  Luiz, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole were all successful. Philipp Lahm,  Mario Gomez and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer were all on target for Bayern. 
                  The momentum shifted decisively when Cech denied Ivica  Olic and Bastian Schweinsteiger hit the post to leave Chelsea on the  brink and present Drogba with his moment of destiny. 
               Champions League final shoot-out as it happened
                  -      Phillip Lahm          (Bayern)       scored 1-0 
 -      Juan Mata          (Chelsea)       missed 1-0 
 -      Mario Gomez          (Bayern)       scored 2-0 
 -      David Luiz          (Chelsea)       scored 2-1 
 -      Manuel Neuer          (Bayern)       scored 3-1 
 -      Frank Lampard          (Chelsea)       scored 3-2 
 -      Ivica Olic          (Bayern)       missed 3-2 
 -      Ashley Cole          (Chelsea)       scored 3-3 
 -      Bastian Schweinsteiger          (Bayern)       missed 3-3 
 -      Didier Drogba          (Chelsea)       scored 3-4 
 
                          He was calmness personified as  he rolled the ball past Neuer to spark wild scenes of elation among  Chelsea's players, staff and supporters.  
                  Suspended captain John Terry joined the celebrations  and lifted the trophy alongside Lampard but it was Drogba who was the  hero, running the length of the pitch swirling his shirt above his head  in triumph, as owner Roman Abramovich looked on as Chelsea finally  claimed the prize he craved above all others. 
                  The questions will now start about the future of  interim manager Roberto di Matteo - who has given the Russian what he  wanted after so many painful failures, including that defeat on  penalties to Manchester United in the rain of Moscow in 2008. 
                  And it is hard to see how Drogba, now 34 but still able  to produce the brilliance that defines big occasions, can be allowed to  walk away as his contract reaches its conclusion. 
                  This was a victory in the mould of Chelsea's       semi-final win against Barcelona,         built on resilience, discipline, defensive organisation and nerve  at the crucial times and done without the suspended Terry, Branislav  Ivanovic, Ramires and Raul Meireles. 
                  Abramovich will leave the big decisions for another  day, but this was a night he and his club have desired since he walked  into Stamford Bridge nine years ago - and achieved with an interim  manager he had to appoint after sacking his personal choice, Andre  Villas-Boas. 
                  Terry was locked in conversation with former England  coach Fabio Capello at pitchside before kick-off, the defender looking  ruefully around the magnificent arena as he contemplated missing out  because of his red card in Barcelona. 
                  Di Matteo delivered a surprise in his starting line-up,  with youngster Ryan Bertrand handed a role on the left flank in front  of Cole in an attempt to stifle the threat of former Blues winger Arjen  Robben. 
                  Chelsea's blanket of defensive defiance served them  well in the Nou Camp - and acted as a dress rehearsal for a first half  spent almost entirely in their territory. 
                  And while Chelsea were organised and resolute, they  were also grateful that Bayern striker Gomez's touch in front of goal  deserted him at decisive moments.
