Chelsea collect first trophy

Chelsea have today won the Community sheild against Arsenal 2-1 thanks to two goals from Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba. Drogba gave Chelsea the lead after 8 minutes with a quality goal which brought the Chelsea fans to their feet. The rest of the half was mainly a midfield battle with very little chances but the game came to life on 52 minutes when Drogba shrugged off tackles from Philippe Senderos, Lauren and Lehmann before guiding a rising shot into the net to make it 2-0 to Chelsea.Cesc Fabregas quickly pulled a goal back for Arsenal, sliding the ball in after Fredrik Ljungberg crossed. With 22 minutes remaining Mourinho introduced Shaun Wright Phillips, though the former Manchester City winger had a quiet game. Final score Chelsea 2 Arsenal 1.



This was a pretty decent game for a Community Sheild match. I personally think that Drogba's first goal was the goal of the Match and I think the man of the match was also Didier Drogba with his two well taken goals. I think that this trophy won't be the only trophy Chelsea will win this season I also think that Arsenal gave a decent account of themselves.
