i think the game was fantastic,both teams were great in terms off attacking and defending, but the stupid decisions by the ref, linesman and chelsea's unsporting behavior ruined the game for me. Fergie said after the match that the ref's decision(regarding chelsea 2nd goal) were to blame for the defeat. Some of u will disagree because we lost on penalties anyway but here me out, if it was not because of the chelsea's second goal, fergie wouldnt have to make the substitutions (giggs,scholes,owen,fabio)to search for an equalizer in the first place. I think he was prepared to go to penalties with the first eleven players and the second goal mess up the plan. Berbatov could have taken the penalty instead of evra( so could nani if he wasnt injured). But in the end kudos to chelsea for winning it with penalties. i realized they went for panelties with their same penalty takers lampard,ballack,drogba, kalou and cech in goal where as for us we had giggs, evra, carrick and foster in goal?, so no shame in losing the penalty guys. The positive thing out of this game is that fergie will reconsider which players suitable to take the penalties in the future. Well better lose penalties now rather than real cup games rite?
