Terry red card vs Barcelona
[1-0]Busquets – 36′
It was a corner that was hit out, Alves pounced and fed Cuenca who slotted it across the box. Busquets was there to hit home from six yards out. Very easy.
[2-0]Iniesta – 43′
Busquets robs the ball and Sanchez breaks. He runs at the defence and they retreat. Messi is there and he passes left to Iniesta who slots it home.

What a finish. Lampard releases him as Barca switched off and he chips the ball over Valdes superbly.
45′
GOAL What a goal! Ramires out of nowhere!
HALF-TIME: Barcelona 2-1 Chelsea. Terry’s red card has handed Barca the advantage, but they will need to score again in the second half.
PENALTY! Drogba was tricked by a one-two and Fabregas went down.
Not much contact, but enough and Barca have a great chance right away. Messi steps up…
He hits the bar! Incredible!
The ball was in the Barcelona box, but then it was hammered up the other end and Torres found himself free. He took it round Valdes and made it 2-2.
FULL-TIME: Barcelona 2-2 Chelsea. The Blues have tamed Barca on their own pitch. A red card, a missed penalty and four goals. What more could you want? Chelsea are into the final.
Where to start? Chelsea defended manfully after John Terry’s sending off and didn’t concede in the second half. Torres put the finishing touches on it, but they will struggle to put out a team in the final.
No Terry, no Ivanovic, no Ramires, no Ivanovic. But who cares? They are into the final and they have a chance to lift Europe’s top prize.
