I don't think Cesc is to blame. He is trying to block his face, it's gerrard's shot after all. He is known to bang some hard ball into goals from as far as 40 yards. Any human will be scared if such a power were to hit the face.
To block his face ? U need to see the replay again I think. His hand was on top of his head la. & to raise Ur hand during a freekick (if Ur in the wall) is not in any teams defensive manual, I can assure U tht. Even when U defend a live ball in a penalty box also U shudn't raise Ur hand.I'm not trying to put any blame on Fabregas here. Just that, we were very, very lucky in that sense this morning. Just think of wht would happen if Howard Webb gave them a freekick just at the edge of the box, or red-carded Fabregas for deliberate handball (he was already on a yellow), or worse.. penalty. Haih....
