Not long ago, Carlo Ancelotti's team seemed to get far not only from the first place fight , but also from the fourth place in the Premier League, the last to ensure participation in the Champions League. Victory at Copenhagen has opened a series of excellent results for Chelsea, who imposed itself in the derby against Manchester United, and on Monday night gained a convincing success with Blackpool with the score 3-1.
Frank Lampard was the man of the match, being co-author of John Terry's goal, then managed a second half double within four minutes ,with a goal from the penalty spot and another on the counter-attack . The hosts scored the honor goal through Jason Puncheon and keep their record of scoring in all matches at home this season intact. To be noted also that Ashley Cole has checked the 200th match in Chelsea's shirt, and Didier Drogba was injured after a clash with James Beattie and risks to miss the return leg against FC Copenhagen in the Champions League knockout.
According to Frank Lampard, the difference from the leader United can be recovered, with the condition that the Londoners will win all ten matches they have to play.: "We have to believe until the end that we have a chance. Manchester and Arsenal have a great advance towards us, but we proved that we play good football, and that gives us confidence that we can achieve victory on the line. Of course it will not be easy, "noted the midfielder. Carlo Ancelotti was again in the position to talk more about Fernando Torres , not about the game, given that the Spanish striker has not scored this time either." I am satisfied of his performance. I do not worry, I'm sure he will score soon. "
Like Lampard, the Italian coach believes that Manchester can be reached, but he prefers the policy of small steps: "It is best to take each match, not to think about the first place. The fact is that our black phase has finally gone."
