Manchester United Vs. Chelsea FC: Blues Finally Create Something

It's taken 19 minutes, but Chelsea have finally managed to create something that resembles a scoring opportunity. Florent Malouda started the move with a cross into the box, but Didier Drogba mistimed his jump as he went up for the header. Edwin van der Sar didn't deal with the cross, despite this mistake by Drogba, and the ball ended up falling to Solomon Kalou after a bit of a scramble. He took a shot from 15 yards out, but it was easily gathered by the United goalkeeper. One minute later, Kalou had another shot on target, but it was once again easily saved.

Branislav Ivanovic, who is carrying a yellow card, seriously got away with a bad foul in the 21st minute, as he took down Wayne Rooney unfairly in the center of the pitch, about 35 yards away from goal. Rooney complained to the referee that Ivanovic should see a second yellow card, but Howard Webb was having none of it.
