Chelsea vs Newcastle United Match Report
Chelsea ended their hopes of winning the League Cup with a 3-4 loss to Newcastle United. The home side have been excellent of late, but that came to a crashing halt when the English Champions were knocked out of the Carling Cup by Newcastle.Carlo Ancelotti fielded an experimental Blues squad that featured a few first team regulars including Nicolas Anelka. Newcastle manager Chris Hughton brought his best available and the results paid off.
The Magpies kept attacking after going a goal down to Chelsea in the 6th minute. Blues newcomer Patrick Van Aanholt put one past keeper Tim Krul to start off the scoring. Next came a volley from Newcastle’s Nile Ranger in the 27th minute, that was followed by a well-taken free-kick from teammate Ryan Taylor in the 32nd minute.
Chelsea kept firing shots on target, but forward Shola Ameobi punished an error from defender Paul Ferreira from long-range to extend the Magpies tally. Not to be outdone, Anelka brought his side level with a goal in the 70th minute, followed by a penalty past Chelsea keeper Ross Turnbull in the 87th minute. Ameobi had the last word with a header in injury time to earn his side a historic win.
