this pitch is a mess.

Joe Cole does not take it very well when the ball supposedly goes off him. Although to be fair, both times he got angry it was legitimately a bad call.

chelsea is a team of hot heads. terry, lampard, a. cole, j. cole, ballack, they complain and bum rush officials constantly. it's really embarassing and annoying.

[MPC]

what a shot! dammit

Drogba comes close but hits the post.

I won't mind if this game goes into overtime, but I'm gonna be ticked if it goes into penalties.

[Guest]

Giggs on for Scholes' broken face.

agreed. i'd hate for it to be settled by penalties.

[MPC]

ugh. that was close.

[Guest]

Another Chelsea shot off the bar, this time it's Lampard.

[Guest]

Joe Cole pouting because he didn't get the foul call.

[Guest]

Wow on Lampard off the bar.

[MPC]

wow. i luv john terry. what an effort.

[Guest]

Great run and pass by Evra but Giggs' shot was deflected wide/high.

[MPC]

haha, "scouse free zone", surprised espn would put that on. then again, they don't know what that means.

[Guest]

A promising attack from United ends up with no quality chances. Hargreaves had a really weak cross at the end.

[Guest]

WOW. HOLY CRAP. Drogba just picked up a red card.

 

On the replay he slapped Vidic in the face. He didn't do it hard but he definitely slapped him.

wtf? drogba? dumbass.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

What in the world?

[MPC]

that's the last time we'll see him in chelsea shirt.

[Guest]

Drogba should thank Zidane for going nuts on Materazzi in the World Cup because if it wasn't for that, this would be the stupidest sending off in a major final in recent memory.

[MPC]

at least it's in the last few minutes of regular time, not 30 minutes ago.

 

just hold on for penalties.

[MPC]

i can't believe makaelele played a full 120. that's incredible fitness for him.

[Guest]

And we're headed to penalties.

[MPC]

chelsea doesn't have the best history with penalties. cech is better keeper than van der sar but pk's might be a different story.
