[football] Chelsea Wins Community Shield

Chelsea started the new season with a bog win as they defeated Manchester United in tiebreaker after the full time of play ended with a 2-2 draw. Though the match four goals in the 90 minutes, to be frank, it was not what was expected from two biggest club of the Premier League meeting to play the first match of the season. Both the teams played a lot of miss passes and the game never reached the perfection that was expected. None of the goals was something that a fan would die to watch.

first goal 0-1: As early as 10th minute Nani shot at the goal from outside the box which seemed to get pass below the hand of Petr Cech. The Czech goalkeeper would have stopped it any other day.

second goal 1-1: Chelsea hit back after the break and this time it was the other goalkeeper to take the blame as he cleared a cross from left just to put it in front of an unmarked Ricardo Carvalho in front of the open goal. The match was 52 minutes old.

third goal 2-1: This time it was a great confusion as Evra was lying injured colliding with Ballack and half of the Man U players left the ball and waiting for the referee to stop the play which the referee never did. Drogba combined with Anelka and Lampard and gave a last moment pass to Lampard at the top of the box whose fiery shot got past Ben Foster. It was the 71st minute then.

fourth goal 2-2: It was the best goal of the match as Rooney got a pass ahead of the defenders and shot past goalkeeper to get the equaliser at the 90th minute. However there is a doubt whether he was onside or not.

tie breaker: Manchester United missed the second and third shoot when Giggs and Evra could not find the net. Rooney scored for them. For Chelsea Drogba, Kalou, Carvalho and Lampard scored.
