Lampard: Napoli win was "major turning point"

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has said that the club's come-from-behind win over Napoli was a "massive" turning point in the season.

Lampard, whose side have gone on to reach the Champions League final, insists that fighting back from 3-1 down to beat the Italians 5-4 on aggregate was perhaps the most significant result of the club's season.

"We were despondent in the dressing room afterwards," he said.

"It took a big effort in the weeks between the games to turn the things around.

"The home game was a massive turning point in our season; in fact the major turning point in our season."

The Blues take on Bayern Munich in the Champions League final on Saturday.
