RESERVE REPORT: FULHAM 2 CHELSEA 2
Posted on: Mon 28 Nov 2011
=== Summary ===
A wonderful second-half fightback from Dermot Drummy's side but they went
away feeling they should have left with all three points following Milan
Lalkovic's late penalty miss.
Fulham were well worth their 2-0 lead at the break having dominated for
most of the first half. Sloppy defending allowed Orlando Sa to head the
hosts in front, while Tom Donegan was given too much space to score the
second.
Chelsea looked a different side after the interval, taking the game to
Fulham and playing some excellent football. Lalkovic pulled his side back
into the game with a deserved goal midway through the second half, before
man-of-the-match Nathaniel Chalobah (pictured) headed the equaliser
shortly after.
The penalty would have capped a remarkable turnaround, but the Blues can
be proud of their second-half efforts.
=== Team news ===
Todd Kane returned at right-back in place of Sam Hutchinson, Carl Magnay
returned from injury to take his place at the heart of the defence, while
Ben Gordon was deployed at left-back.
In midfield, Nathaniel Chalobah came in to captain the side and in attack
Lucas Piazon started on the left of a front three.
=== First Half ===
It was almost a bad start for the Blues, as goalkeeper Jamal Blackman was
forced into a save as early as the first minute, but the goalkeeper tipped
Alexander Brister's effort over the bar.
Lalkovic then went down inside the penalty area under a clumsy challenge
by Dan Burn; it looked like it could have been a penalty to the visitors
but the referee waved the appeals away.
Fulham were in front in the 12th minute, when a wonderfully flighted cross
from the right by Bjorn Riise was met by Sa, who rose unmarked and powered
his header beyond Blackman.
Blues reserve manager Dermot Drummy will not have been pleased after
seeing his side concede such a poor goal from a defensive point of view.
Fulham were in the ascendancy, and Chelsea's creative men, most notably
Lalkovic and Piazon, were struggling to get into the game.
Chelsea's first real effort on goal came when a fantastic free-kick by
Billy Clifford, who had been impressive in the opening exchanges, was met
by Piazon's header, but the Brazilian's effort sailed harmlessly wide.
It was 2-0 to the hosts in the 27th minute when Donegan was released in
the right-hand channel; the youngster eased past Rohan Ince before
sliding his shot beyond Blackman to give Chelsea a real uphill task.
The game could have really been put beyond Chelsea's reach eight minutes
later, when Riise and Sa combined once again, but fortunately for the
Blues the striker's finish was ruled out for offside.
Two minutes later and Chelsea were almost back in the game; some excellent
work down the right by Todd Kane teed up Piazon who was only yards from
goal, but his shot was expertly saved by Csaba Somogyi in the Fulham goal.
Kane, who was Chelsea's best player in the first half, went on a
marauding run just before the break but smashed his effort well wide.
=== Second Half ===
Chelsea began the second spell on the front foot, forcing an early corner,
but Clifford's delivery was easily cleared.
Chalobah was slowly beginning to assert himself in central midfield, but
the Blues seemed to be running out of ideas in the final third.
We were almost back in the game in the 54th minute when Lalkovic burst
down the right and fired across the face of the goal, but Chalobah failed
to connect properly and could only steer his shot wide.
Against the run of play, Fulham almost made it 3-0. Sa spun Carl Magnay on
the edge of the box and hit his shot low and hard, but Blackman was equal
to it, saving well and keeping his side in the game.
Chelsea were rewarded in the 66th minute when Chalobah burst through the
middle of the park and floated a left-footed cross to the back post, where
top-scorer Lalkovic arrived to crash his volley past Somogyi. It was
nothing more than the Blues deserved after dominating the second half up
to this point.
The scores should have been level only minutes later but Magnay somehow
missed the target when it appeared easier to score.
The Blues weren't to be denied though two minutes later when Chalobah, who
had been running the show in the second half, rose highest and connected
with Clifford's corner to head home.
Piazon, who had been fairly quiet in the first half, was causing Fulham
problems every time he was on the ball and the home side were finding it
difficult to contain him.
Chelsea sensed the three points were there for the taking, but as they
continued to press for the winner, they left themselves vulnerable at the
back.
Chelsea were handed a gift in the 87th minute when Piazon was tripped in
the box; the referee pointed to the spot, but Lalkovic, following a
confident run up, blasted high over the bar to spare Fulham's blushes.

當我漫遊在斯坦弗森林時,我看見了雀爾西,米爾斯的女兒,在傍晚初升的明月中,
在泰晤士河旁一處林地空間上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的記憶都離開了我,我像落入迷離
幻境中一般,因為雀爾西是伊露維塔兒女中最美的一位。她身上那襲藍色的衣裳宛如
萬里無雲的晴空,她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星閃爍的天空;她的斗篷上繡著金色的花
朵,她的頭髮漆黑如暮色中的陰影。她的榮光與美好,就像樹葉上的光芒,像是潺潺
流水,像是這迷離世界上方閃爍的繁星;她臉上有閃亮的光輝。
