Match review
The Spanish club were challenging for their seventh European trophy overall (all six previous were European Cups), a record among European clubs at the time, while the West Londoners were seeking their first ever European honour. The final took place on 19 May 1971 and was staged at Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus, Greece,{{Cite web |url=http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/ecwc/history/season=1970/intro.html |title=Uefa.com - UEFA Cup Winners' Cup |access-date=13 July 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100501123407/http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/ecwc/history/season=1970/intro.html |archive-date=1 May 2010 |url-status=dead }} which was filled to capacity by traveling fans of both clubs as well as local football aficionados. Chelsea went ahead with a Peter Osgood left-foot volley from inside the area, after a Boyle-Cooke combination, but Real, demonstrating their "exceptional ball skills", pressed back and eventually equalised in the last minute with Ignacio Zoco.[http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/incoming/article155173.ece/BINARY/Chelsea+1-1+Real+Madrid "Real Shock for Chelsea"], Daily Mirror, 20 May 1971 There were no further goals scored in extra time, so the final went to a replay game.{{cite web|url=https://thesefootballtimes.co/2018/12/14/the-emperors-of-athens-how-chelsea-won-the-cup-winners-cup-in-1971/|title=The Emperors Of Athens: How Chelsea Won The Cup Winners' Cup In 1971|publisher=thesefootballtimes.co|author=Paul Mc Parlan|date=14 December 2018}}
The replay was staged at the same venue two days later, on a Friday, with markedly lower attendance. Most of the clubs' fans had left, having booked return tickets on the assumption that, as usual, the final would be decided in one game, although a number of Chelsea's followers stayed on, "sleeping in the rough" around the city.[http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/incoming/article5638.ece/BINARY/Chelsea+2-1+Real+Madrid "Ole! Ole! Chelsea!"], Daily Mirror, 22 May 1971 Chelsea scored two goals with Peter Osgood and John Dempsey in the first half. Real's Sebastián Fleitas scored 15 minutes before the end of the game but Chelsea hung on to win 2–1 and become the third London club to win the trophy.
