Borussia Dortmund fans storm the barriers to try and get into Stamford Bridge ahead of their side's Champions League last-16 clash with Chelsea

Borussia Dortmund fans burst through the barriers to get into Stamford Bridge for their side's Champions League clash with Chelsea on Tuesday night.

Thousands of the German side's fans were seen marching through the streets of London ahead of the game, and they then tried to get into the stadium prior to the 8pm kick-off.

A heavy police presence appeared to be on hand to try and keep disruption to a minimum, but this did not deter the Dortmund fans from making their way to the stadium.

Fans were seen scrambling over the barriers outside the ground in chaotic scenes ahead of what promises to be a crucial game with a place in the quarter-finals of the competition at stake.
