    There's a real energy and passion to this game tonight.

    Chelsea just need to keep their heads. They are flying into tackles, which is good, but you've got to be controlled and have some discipline.

    Amazing drama here. The ups and downs the crowd has been through over this penalty incident. It's getting heated on the benches too. Havertz goes the same way and puts it away.

    Emre Can has a shot blocked for Dortmund, Chelsea counter and Alexander Meyer almost - but not quite - handles outside his own box to deny Raheem Sterling.

    Astonishing scenes at Stamford Bridge. The game was good enough in the first half and it continues.

    We've got incident and controversy.

    To be fair to Havertz, wow, he put it virtually in the same spot, just three inches to the left and Chelsea lead.

    Dortmund were furious at that. First the penalty award and then the retake.

    Sho: What an absolute joke of a decision.

    Thomas: It is a valid tactic in European football just to kick the ball at an opponent's arm and then beg for a penalty. VAR/Handball rules are so broken.

    Richard: Absolutely no chance that's a penalty. He's not looking at the ball and his arm is by his side.

    This is the first time Chelsea have scored twice in a game in 2023.

    They needed to score two goals - and they have.

    Kai Havertz (53 mins)

    Almost everything is the same this time... except the ball is a few inches to the left and goes in.

    The keeper goes the same way, Kai Havertz goes the same way - just this time it goes inside the post.

    Chelsea lead this Champions League tie.

    It's going to be retaken. About three Dortmund players had run into the box.

    Havertz won't be taking another one. He waited for the keeper to commit himself but he's fluffed it.

    They're checking for encroachment! Could this be a retake?

    Oh no! Kai Havertz stops and starts as he steps up. He sends the keeper the wrong way and then the ball hits the post.

    Lots of arguments still but it is a penalty. That won't change.

    He wasn't that far away from Chilwell when the ball hit his arm. If I was the defender I'd be very disappointed if that was given.

    Ben Chilwell's cross did hit Marius Wolf's arms but I thought they were just in front of his body. But who knows anymore?

    Referee Danny Makkelie is told to go to the screen to make a decision.

    Chelsea appeal for a penalty but the ball was blasted at Marius Wolf's arms so nah. Mateo Kovacic spins and shoots wide.

    Only three of the outfield Chelsea players weren't involved in creating a shot on goal in the first half.
