Chelsea Stun ManUtd with a 2-2 Comeback at Old -Trafford
« on: March 10, 2013, 07:43:02 PM »


It was indeed a delightful FA CUP quarterfinal display from two giants but the thrilling part of the match was the wining and the come back by Chelsea FC, Chelsea dominated the entire match with almost a 64-36 possession but it was Man Utd who got the lead with Chicarito and Rooney within the First 11 minutes and the Chelsea fight back started.

The first half ended 2-0 but with a double substitution from Coach Rafa with Hazard and Mikel coming on, Chelsea played a more freestyle football which changed everything. Hazard culled in the first and Ramires put in the equalizer. It was Chelsea's game to loose as they squandered 2 great chances at the dying minute with De-Gea saving Mata's shot and Torress shooting directly at the keeper in the 93 minutes.

All in all, It is a game to be proud off by the blues as the replay goes to Stamford Bridge to decide who goes through to the semi-finals.

Chelsea fans have forgotten the anti-Rafael Benitez chants and celebrate a replay they fully deserved after a superb last half hour. In those closing stages there was only going to be one winner and that was Chelsea. And credit to Benitez for making those changes

Chelsea scorer Juan Mata: "In the second half we had so many chances to score and David De Gea was impressive today. Today is a day to be proud of this team. We went 2-0 down but we tried until the end but we had the chances. De Gea saved with his feet at the end but I tried and now we have a chances in the replay."
