Benfica took the lead through an Oscar Cardozo penalty before Fernando Torres equalised and then Branislav Ivanovic would score the winner late on.<br />

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s been an amazing time for all of us involved," said captain Lampard.<br />

"Talk about ups and downs in the last two years! But this is a big up. We&rsquo;re a group, a team, and it was tight tonight after the long season we&rsquo;ve had.<br />

"The club deserve it. I really, really hope to be around next year.<br />

"With a game tonight and coming up we haven&rsquo;t sat down and signed anything, but I really hope so and things are looking good. The club have been brilliant.&rdquo;
