CHELSEA VERSES A..S. ROMA.

This clash of the championship was played at the A.S.Roma ground in Rome.Both these clubs came second in their respective league last year. Theclash was more eagerly waited by the Roma fans as their championship,started badly with defeats by F.C. Cluj and a defeat by Chelsea in the earlier game.
The first goal came due to to some very lazy and careless defending by Chelsea. the two former Real Madrid men got involved by Ciccino making a acurate pass to Panucci who then scored the goal. Chelsea kept the Roma and Brazilian keeper Dhoni on his toes with good saves from good kicks from Frank Lampard and some from Deco, the Brazilian born player who now plays for Portugal. It stood at 1-0 into the halftime break.After the break it was the Vuchnic show who scored two goals to make the game safe . But there as still time for Chelsea to score an consolation goal, and it came through John Terry in the 75th minuteduring a corner kick.It was Terrys trade mark goal . It was Terry who scored the one goal in the last game as well.
Deco was sent of by the referee in the second half. As Deco was already shown a yellow card once and the referee told him to wait till he blew the whistle before taking the free kick. But Deco took it before the whistle blew and so got a second yellow and red as well.
There was drama outside the pitch as well a Roma fan fell 4 meters during his celebration and got hurt.. Three english fans and a policeman were injured and a Roma fan was also arrested for hulliganisim.
