Chelsea ease past Norwich, Arsenal held by Blackburn in FA Cup
Published in FilGoal on 17 - 02 - 2007

Arsenal were held to a goalless draw by Blackburn Rovers at Emirates stadium, while Chelsea have crushed Norwich city 4-0 at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday.
The Gunners were stunned by an impressive show from Blackburn's American keeper Brad Friedel who produced a stunning double-save one minute from time to deny Thierry Henry and Justin Hoyte a chance to score.
Arsenal were harshly disallowed a penalty in the 76h minute when Jeremie Aliadiere was brought down in the area by Stephen Warnock only to see the referee waving play on.
The result means the game will be replayed at Blackburn's venue Ewood Park.

Chelsea crushed Norwich
In Stamford Bridge, Chelsea proved too strong for First Division side Norwich City who conceded four goals.
A long deflected shot from Shaun Wright-Phillips put The Blues ahead in the 39th minute.
Ivorian striker Didier Drogba scored his 26th goal of the season, tapping in a bounced close-range ball from Chris Brown five minutes into the second half.
Ukrainian outcast striker Andriy Shevchenko played a low cross to Michael Essien who fired it into the roof of the Norwich net in the final minute.
Sheva completed the rout in stoppage time after heading home Salomon Kalou's cross.
