Chelsea No2 Gianfranco Zola is proud to have helped them into another European final.

Zola will be on the bench for tonight's Europa League final against Arsenal.

He said, "We played good football, I would say we deserved the final.

"I am very happy, we all are, this club counts a lot for me and it is good to see it again in a European final, there are players who have won a lot, but others have not achieved success, so winning the Europa League would be extraordinary for everyone.

"Arsenal is a team that has gone through ups and downs, it is very dangerous on the counterattack, it can make life difficult for anyone.

"We will have to try to contain their attackers and use our qualities to strike."
