1998 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup Final
- 1998 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup Final
The 1998 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup Final was a football match between Chelsea of England and VfB Stuttgart of Germany. The final was held at Råsunda Stadium in Stockholm.
Match summary
Chelsea's breakthrough came when Gianfranco Zola was introduced after 70 minutes. Zola had been left out of the starting line-up due to a groin strain, but he made an immediate impact. Racing on to Dennis Wise's defence-splitting pass, he unleashed a spectacular shot that flew straight into the top corner.
Chelsea were later reduced to 10 men with the dismissal of Dan Petrescu after 84 minutes, but Stuttgart failed to exploit their numerical advantage, and they too finished with ten men when Gerhard Poschner was sent off in injury time.
