Chelsea FC Vs. Manchester United, 2011 UEFA Champions League: Fernando Torres Can’t Buy A Goal

Fernando Torres has once again been denied a goal, but this time, he wasn’t the person most to blame for his miss. In the 75th minute, a cross connected with the head of Torres who hit a looping header towards the far post. His header could have had more power, but this is nit picking. His header was good and precise, and it would have been a goal against most goalkeepers. However, Edwin van der Sar is not most goalkeepers, and he made a fantastic sprawling fingertip save.

If you didn’t know, the £50m man is still without a goal for the Blues, which has spawned various joke websites such as “Has Torres Scored For Chelsea?” Somehow, despite his high volume of chances, the answer is still no. You would think it was destined to come soon, but who knows at this point. What I want to know is if that website has options like “Almost” and “Are you f--king kidding me?!?”
