Jupp Heynckes says that he has not been surprised by Roberto Di Matteo's success at Chelsea.

Bayern Munich boss Jupp Heynckes has said that he has not been surprised by Roberto Di Matteo's success at Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea boss, who took over at the club in March, has led the Blues to an FA Cup title win and a place in the Champions League final. However, his counterpart insists that his success should come as no surprise.

"I'm not surprised by Di Matteo's performance," he said.

"They beat Napoli at home, beat Barcelona at home and played for 60 minutes a man short in the Camp Nou.

"Chelsea needed that type of person, someone to restructure the team and make them more compact. He seems in control and has been able to create harmony."

Bayern take on Chelsea in their home stadium in the Champions League final tonight.
