pete 2,499 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Newcastle impress Chelsea progress. A brilliant shot from Martins hit the bar and imo crossed the line but was not given. The one and only Drogba scored with a brilliant shot from a freekick bending it to the far post. Newcastle were better over the 90 in a poor game but Chelsea got the goal as happens so often. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza_8 233 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I think the referee and linesman were correct not to allow Martins shot/goal. The whole ball wasn't over the line, about 7/8ths of it was though. Chelsea were poor, Newcastle were OK and Given should've saved Drogba's goal. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hard to see because of the wall Can't take anything away from Drogba , it was a class goal 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was at full stretch but he was a little far off his line. If he was on his line he would have saved it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon 0 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Roeder near looked in tears in the after match interview and said he blamed the ref for letting Chelsea steal 4yds and that because of that the shot was unstoppable 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given got his full hand to it but I think he had poofters disease (floppy wrist) when the ball struck his hand. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
