Chelsea 3 - 0 Middlesboro'
Middlesboro may well have reflected on what might have been, as the Chelsea goal machine was late getting started. In fact the visitors should have gone ahead, after 12 minutes, from a great cross by Stewart Downing, but Mark Viduka missed a sitter. Almost inevitably, it was the mighty Drogba who put Chelsea ahead, practically on the stroke of half time, when he thumped a free kick through a wall of players, to put his side in front at a crucial moment.
Robben came on for Diarra after 65 minutes, and made his presence felt immediately by pressurising Middlesboro's Xaviar into turning the ball into his own net. That stifled any feint chance of recovery the home side harboured.
The superb Robben was again involved when Chelsea got their third goal in the 83rd minute. He won a free kick, when Jason Evell fouled him. Drogbas long-range drive went in off the head of Andrew Davies to give the Ivorian hotshot two more, in his quest to be the Premiership's top goal scorer. More significantly he ensured that his side remain in striking distance of United at the top!
