Chelsea’s Frank Lampard believes his team still have a lot of work to do against Bayern Munich in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final.

The England midfielder scored twice as the London side beat their German visitors 4-2 at Stamford Bridge but Lampard knows they will have to work hard in Tuesday’s return. “They are very strong, well organised and have got world class players and Michael Ballack in the end got a penalty and scored and he will be a big threat out there.”

Despite a superb performance by Lampard, whose second-half double came after an early Joe Cole strike and a late goal from Drogba, the midfielder was not entirely happy. “At the moment I’m disappointed because of the last minute (penalty by Ballack). 4-1 would be a great lead to take there, 4-2 still is but obviously we’re disappointed.” Ballack fell inside the area after the slightest touch on his left arm by Portugal defender Ricardo Carvalho.
