Damn. Should have won this. So many chances but just couldn't close it out.
Gotta feel like we should have taken this in the end, but can't feel too poor about the result. Now for a replay at the Bridge.
If only The Chelsea could play as well as they did in the second half every game.
The Chelsea and Manchester United winner will play Manchester City on the 14th of April.

I don't think I've seen United play a half so poorly. Abysmal. Honestly, the 1st half wasn't that great either, it just looked decent because of the score line. Not sure why Cech came out on the first goal and then the second was a hell of a ball from Rooney with some luck thrown in as well.
I don't know if they were tired in the second half or what but the midfield was completely overrun, no one could string a pass and the commitment and desire was completely lacking. Credit to Chelsea. At times in the second half it looked like Chelsea had 14 players on the pitch to United's 8.

Hazard!
Replay with Manure is April 1st.
Will pull for Chelski again on the April 1st.
Felt a need to revisit this comment:
Would seem, after watching the second half of that match, that it was an excellent substitution, and I'm no Mikel fan/apologist.
Let's give props to Rafa for it, as unpopular as it undoubtedly was.

Down two goals taking off an offensive threat did not seem like a smart move.
It's game day fools!
Cech; Azpili, D Luiz, JT (c), Cole; Ram, Mik; Haz, Mata, Oscar; Torres. - subs: Turn, Fer, Cahill, Bert, Lamps, Benay, Moses.

I like that backline...
+1
The Chelsea will not be shown on Fox Soccer until the conclusion of the Spurs vs Inter game. Will be shown on Fox Soccer 2 Go or streaming sites.
Go time
Steau nearly scored. Would have needed 3 goals if they did.
GOAL!
