Barcelona vs Chelsea Game Highlights (28th April 2009)

Posted: Wednesday, April 29, 2009
Chelsea drew 0-0 with Barcelona during the Champions League semi final match. The game was fully controlled by Barcelona but they were unable to break in to Chelsea’s defense. Barcelona’s strike force of Samuel Eto’o, Messi and Thierry Henry who have scored 90 goals between them in all competitions so far this season couldn’t score a goal. Barcelona have failed to score in a game for the 1st time in 50matches.

Henry proved to be Barcelona real danger man when he twice forced Petr Cech into important saves in the opening half. Moments later, Eto’o tried his luck from 20 yards but Cech was untroubled by his effort.

Chelsea on the other hand should have been ahead when a dreadful back pass by Marquez put Didier Drogba clear in the 38th minute but the Ivorian’s shot was twice saved superbly by Barca goalkeeper Victor Valdes.

Barcelona substitute Bojan Krkic could have made Barcelona win the first leg but he somehow headed a cross from Alves over the bar from point-blank range.
