Having played a shambolic first half in which frankly he Blues were luck to be only 0-2 down, they came out for the second half and tore a page out of the Liverpool comeback book by leading 3-2. Goals from Drogba, a screamer of a free kick ofrom Alex and a 3rd from Lamps had looked as if they had put the tie to bed. But back came Liverpool with 10mins to go, scoring 2 goals in as many minutes as the current frailties of Peter Cech came to the fore again. That made it 3-4 and Liverpool only needed to score one more to progress but up stepped that man Lampard again to finish in the dying minutes from a sweet pull back by Anelka.
So the scousers are dumped out of the Champions league for the second year in a row at the Bridge and now there's the small mater of Barca in the Semis - who said this campaign would be easy - Come on U Blues.
