Not sure that was a penalty

[paultheroyal]

Never a penalty. If anything Chelsea player was fouled.

Chelsea played well tonight.

Just watching highlights of the other semi, didnt realise Dirk Kuyt, Joseph Yobo, Emre & Raul Meireles all played for Fenerbahce.

Looks like I may be digging out my old Fenerbahce shirt for the final!

Nasty injury to Gokhan Gonul in the Benfica - Fenerbache match.

52,000 capacity stadium for the final. Each club to get just 9,000 tickets each.

No surprise that Benfica fans are going nuts about this as so many will lose out while Chelsea wonder what the fuss is about.

To anyone going, have your passport on you at all times.

If the Dutch police stop you for any reason, and you can't produce your ID, they'll cart you off to the cells for a few hours while they check out your details. Not ideal if you were on your way to the match at the time.

Injured Chelsea captain John Terry will not be fit enough to be named as a substitute in Wednesday's Europa League final - despite trying to convince boss Rafael Benitez otherwise.

But Terry, who injured his ankle at Aston Villa on Saturday, will lift the trophy if the Blues beat Benfica in Amsterdam.

I rekcon there'll be about 40,000 Chelsea fans there and about 5,000 Portuguese. the ones in Portugal have bollocks all money and the ones in Europe have to keep their miserable cafes open to try and send money back home

I want Chelsea to win now so I can have a chuckle at this.

Chelsea getting absolutely schooled at the moment.

"...can you hear the drums F....."

ooops Cahill 'scarecrows' a pen to Benfica - 1-1.
