Champions League: Round of 16 Game Recap

0 – 2
Kobenhavn v Chelsea

Anelka was one fire, scoring the two away goals for Chelsea.  Suffering a loss to Everton in the FA Cup last weekend, this would definitely be a much needed boost to them.  I love what Carlo Ancelotti said in a press con (rumors are that his ass is on the line if Chelsea loses against Kobenhavn)

“Maybe it could be the best season that we can ever have a memory of. Maybe it could be the worst. I don’t know.  But wait, wait. Chelsea has not died. It’s still alive.”

I do feel bad for Kobenhavn as I have a soft spot for the underdogs.  This is the lions first time to reach the knock out stage of the Champions League.
