Barcelona 2 Chelsea FC 2

3 November 2006

The return leg of the much awaited clash between the “True Blues” of Stamford Bridge and the Catalan giants in Nou Camp lived up to its billing as “The One To Watch!!!”

Chelsea already with 9 points from first 3 matches which included a win against Barca at the Bridge feeling very confident going into this match, it was Barca who shot to the lead inside 3 minutes by Deco. The game was soon to degenerate into an intense atmoshere maybe greater than that felt even at the heigth of the rivalry between Man U and Arsenal with Roy Keane and Viera present.

The number of yellow cards dished was into double figures. Even the media and supporters got into a frenzy thinking that Cole has picked up a 2nd yellow card when the first was meant for Lampard who misses the next game.
Lampard also scored an incredible goal from an almost impossible angle with Gudjohnson equalising after Ronaldihno has made a rare fantastic run.

Drogba who showed his passion and different sides yet in a Chelsea shirt was involved in lots of jostling and shoving and capped awonderful evening with a fantastic goal in injury time.

    People complaining about Jose’s mind games in tournaments should bear in mind that history will not remember these bickerings and so called allegations and subplots he manages to always come up with. He is a welcome breath of fresh air in English football where the managers can be accused of being dull and predictable in their speeches. Jose adds something else to the game and boy am I glad he is at the Bridge. We want laurels at the Bridge and he is getting them for us.

    I like how Jose always manages to bring the best from Chelsea and the way he inspires the team. I would rather he goes about his business the way he presently does than to go it the Wenger way (and misfire in front of goal a zillion times), the Ferguson way ( and hand a mediocre team its first Champions league victory) or even the Benitez way ( and have a useless start to the season).

    Jose for ever at the Bridge is my slogan
