JOE'S MEMORY GAME
Posted on: Wed 06 May 2009
Utter 'FC Barcelona' to Joe Cole and there is one date that jumps out -
March 8, 2005.
That was the night Chelsea came from a first leg deficit to beat the
Catalan giants with a breathtaking display of football, goals from Eidur
Gudjohnsen, Frank Lampard, Damien Duff and John Terry cancelling out
Ronaldinho's two strikes to send the Blues through to the Champions League
quarter-finals.
That was the night Cole and co. confirmed they well and truly belonged
among Europe's elite, already on the march to a first English title in 50
years with a Carling Cup in the bag.
That was the night many Chelsea fans still hail as their favourite in
recent years, eclipsing otherwise excellent wins against Liverpool and
Manchester United.
Cole, out for the rest of the season with cruciate ligament damage, is no
different and still recalls clearly the events of that evening.
'What a game, we had lost the first leg out there even though we had
played quite well. Bella scored an own goal which we like to joke about
since he joined,' he said, relaying the details of the 2-1 defeat in Spain
that had preceded it.
'The home game was unbelievable, just awesome and people still remember it
as one of the best Chelsea games. Everything about it stands out, and the
fans were brilliant too.
'We scored early, Eidur who we all remember well banged one in and then
Lampsy got the second. I thought I was going to score after I beat Van
Bronckhorst who was marking me, but the keeper parried it and Frank was
there to score,' said the 26-year-old.

Celebrating the third goal with Damien Duff and the bench
A third goal followed as Duff raced onto Cole's pass and slotted home,
before Barc,a pulled two back to move in front on away goals before
half-time.
'They got a penalty back and then Ronaldinho scored that toe-poke from the
edge of the box to put them ahead. I hit the post before half-time and
remember thinking maybe it wasn't to be,' he smiled.
'We were really going for it in the second half though, Valdes pulled off
another save from me before JT's header won it. I still remember
celebrating with him afterwards.

JT heads home the vital fourth
'It was such a memorable night, beating Barcelona, Collina was even
reffing. It really showed we were one of Europe's big teams, we ripped
them to pieces in that first half, I think it was one of my best Chelsea
games.
'The atmosphere the fans generated that night was just brilliant, I know
if things hadn't worked out for me I would have been there, so it was
extra special for me to be out there on the pitch.
'Hopefully the boys can do it again on Wednesday night, they are confident
and in good form so there is no reason not to. It's a shame for me to miss
it but I'll be there supporting them all the way.
