Very close from drogba hitting the post- fergies hairdryer must have been off at half time because united have been disappointing ever since chelsea scored

Edit: extra time- i have a feeling chelsea needed to win in normal time!

Edit: Fat Frank just hit the bar- maybe they do have a chance still......

Sudden Death!

anderson scores straight down the middle!
kalou has to score.......great penalty very calm. 5all!
nobody wants to take one!
Giggsy steps up on his record breaking day and.......low bottom right- very calm and well taken 6-5 utd
Anelka! doesnt look good for chelsea....i dont rate him.....and......van der SAR SAVES IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mike youve lost ur way hun you shudda been a commentator lol

Excellent save from Van De Sar whoooooooooooot

just thought id post for anybody whos tv was broken


overall a great game and a good advert for english football to the watching world.
Barring the little spat at the end of injury time where drogba was dismissed!
Chelsea should have won it in normal time and as i said in my commentary (lol) after the 90 minutes had passed i didnt fancy them.
Drogba and lampard hitting the woodwork, a couple of good saves by van der sar.......united looked a bit lost after chelsea equalised.
Despite ronaldo scoring uniteds goal he didnt have the best of games IMO, I thought essien was chelseas energy again. he was everywhere.
Gutted for JT missing the penalty that would have got his hands on the cup. He sent him the wrong way only to see it fly marginally wide and i cant imagine how gutted he is. Though i guess his face now says it all.
Avram Grant will leave now IMO, and drogba and anelka will both be off in the summer too.
For a neutral a great game to watch and Well done United

Put a fiver on that

returning how much luke?



lmao

Not sure yet! I'll see tomorrow.

Niall is not happy!!

niall u shud b happy chelski dint win a trophy


COME ON U REDS

but i fort chelski were the betta team from 2nd half on wards

but we won in end

which is all tht matters

hmmm well i dont care what anyone says, winning on penalties is just ridiculous, such a bad ending to a fantastic game...personally thought chelsea deserved to win, but that's football...

*hands niall a tissue*

JT spits on tevez ....glad he missed his penalty.....he's still crying lol

i thought that was quite a poor final.

was quite dramatic but. wish it was won in normal time but cos they had to cancel Dexter!

thats just brilliant haha,i was so scared when he stepped up for the shot

and then really really happy

go on edwin

What? So they should play until another goal is scored? Or have a bunch of judges at the end who decide which team has been better, like in boxing? Yes, penalties isn't the ideal way to decide it, but that's why it's the last option.

Oh, and while I didn't care who won, it's great to see Drogba get sent off!
