'Anyone can miss'
The trophy had looked to be heading for Stamford Bridge when Petr Čech saved United's third penalty from Ronaldo to give his side the advantage. Lampard duly scored to make it 3-2 and, after three more successful kicks Chelsea captain John Terry had the chance to settle the final – only to slice his spot-kick wide. Three successful conversions later, Nicolas Anelka was denied by Edwin van der Sar and the trophy was United's again. "Penalties are difficult and that's why players miss," Lampard admitted. "Cristiano Ronaldo is probably the best player in the world at the moment and he missed. John Terry missed. Anyone can miss. That's how cruel it is. I have respect for anyone who stands up and takes a penalty in that sort of situation."
'We gave everything'
Lampard, who hopes to open talks on a new contract with Chelsea this summer with his current deal due to expire at the end of next season, believes the London club and their manager Avram Grant have every reason to feel satisfied with their efforts, despite a first trophyless campaign since 2003/04, having pushed United all the way in the league and UEFA Champions League. "Avram said he was proud and I think he's right to be proud because everyone at the club gives everything to try and win this," he added. "We didn't win but we gave everything and if you give everything you can't regret too much."
P.S. I want Grant to leave Chelsea.
真係很不開心, 下半場和加時都已經控制大局, 柱又撞過, 空門又護過, PK就這樣輸了.
Terry射的時候我完全沒有想過會唔入, 更加想不到是因為洗腳而唔入, 雲達沙已經捉錯路, 只要中就行, 始終... 事與願違.
如果唔係Terry護空門, 都已經不用PK, 但如果Lampard和Drogba個兩球唔攞到咁盡, 亦都不用PK.
Chelsea表現好過MU, 但就是不能取勝.
最後要講下Grant, 有Shevchenko唔用, 用一個又唔跑, 跑又跑得慢, 又沒有鬥心的Anelka.
用Essein踢SB, 佢可以踢SB唔代表佢踢得好, 根本就mark唔到CR.
Malouda踢得幾好又給換走, 最憎就是Kalou, 常常推甩腳, 又冇身位.
"We didn't win but we gave everything and if you give everything you can't regret too much." said Lampard.
