LONDON: Chelsea beat Everton 2-1 to win the 2009 FA Cup Final at Wembley
Stadium here on Saturday.
This is Chelsea’s first big victory in the season.
Frenchman Louis Saha scored the fastest-ever goal in an FA Cup final, in just 25
seconds, to give Everton the lead before Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba
equalised for Chelsea in the 21st minute.
The match between the Premier League rivals remained all square until the 72nd
minute when Chelsea's England midfielder Frank Lampard scored his 20th goal of
the season despite Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard getting both hands to the ball. |
