Champions League: Liverpool 1 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: “The roars of the Anfield crowd at the close were solely of defiance. Lesser supporters would have been struck dumb by John Arne Riise’s own-goal equaliser for Chelsea four minutes into stoppage time that, improbably after this showing, makes the visitors favourites to stride on to a Champions League final [...]
Premier League: Manchester City 0 - 2 Chelsea
Match reports The Observer, Jamie Jackson: “Chelsea deserve a little of the stuff they sometimes lack - goodwill - for at least keeping the Premier League title race alive with this victory, which maintains the pressure on Manchester United. They deserved this win, though their performance was, like the match, hardly vintage. Still, with Arsène Wenger [...]
Champions League: Fenerbahce 2 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports The Guardian, David Hytner: “Having forged ahead through an own-goal from Deivid, [Chelsea] had a fistful of first-half chances to become unassailable. Yet dreams turned into nightmares in the second half as an equaliser from Kazim Kazim, better known to English audiences as Colin Kazim-Richards, formerly of Bury, Brighton and Sheffield United, was followed [...]
Premier League: Tottenham Hotspur 4 - 4 Chelsea
Match reports The Times: “How Chelsea must hate Tottenham Hotspur. Beaten by them in the Carling Cup final at Wembley last month, it was the North London side who again thwarted their ambitions, this time in the Barclays Premier League and in an astonishing eight-goal extravaganza at White Hart Lane last night.” The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: “Chelsea [...]
Premier League: Sunderland 0 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports The Observer, Paul Wilson: “This was not the most impressive display from Chelsea - it was a hard-fought win on a bitterly cold afternoon in the north east - but you cannot play Derby every week and you get the same number of points for a single-goal victory as you do for a six-goal [...]
Premier League: West Ham United 0 - 4 Chelsea
Match reports Sunday Times: “Three goals up within 22 minutes, reduced to 10 men after 34, Chelsea rose from the ashes of their Carling Cup final defeat to crush a disorganised West Ham.” The Observer, Duncan Castles: “Grant’s first Premier League victory since January keeps his team nominally in contention for the title and may go some [...]
FA Cup: Chelsea 3 - 1 Huddersfield Town
Match reports Independent on Sunday, Ronald Atkin: “Though they duly headed back north empty-handed, Huddersfield, players and supporters alike, had the traditional grand day out in London beloved of FA Cup minnows and for a gloriously unbelievable quarter of an hour at the start of the second half, were actually holding the world’s richest team 1-1. [...]
Premier League: Portsmouth 1 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports The Observer, Stuart Barnes: “Delight for Jermain Defoe, disappointment for Chelsea and another twist in a fascinating Premier League championship race from a match that ebbed and flowed entertainingly throughout.” Independent on Sunday, Ronald Atkin: “In a midfield containing the world-renowned likes of Michael Ballack and Claude Makelele, Lassana Diarra shone like a Portsmouth harbour [...]
Premier League: Birmingham City 0 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports Independent on Sunday, Guy Hodgson: “Claudio Pizarro, the striker who Chelsea supporters feared might never score in the Premier League again, confounded doubters yesterday to maintain the push towards the top of the table. He might find goals hard to come by against everyone else, but against Birmingham City he is deadly.” Sunday Telegraph, Duncan [...]
FA Cup: Chelsea 1 - 0 Queens Park Rangers
Match reports The Observer, Duncan Castles: “QPR, taken over in September by two Formula One money men and refinanced last month by an Indian billionaire, are on their way back to the top tier of English football. Their half-rebuilt team may still be one of Championship stalwarts and Premier League fringe players, their football not yet [...]
