Well, Everton gave it a go and no one can say that they didn’t, but Frank Lampard scored the winner as Chelsea came from behind to win at Wembley. Everton, though, didn’t just get off to the best possible start, they got off to the best start ever, Louis Saha’s goal on 25 seconds beating Roberto di Matteo’s 43-second opener in 1997. In the Toffees’ first attack, big Fellaini showed his aerial threat in the box from a Pienaar cross, with Louis Saha profiting with a majestic, clinical left-footed strike past the haplessCech. The Merseysiders held the lead for 20 minutes before Malouda swung over a left-wing cross into the box and Didier Drogba beat Lescott to head in the equaliser.
The match then settled down into a relatively even contest, but 20 minutes from time a Frank Lampard stonker – he even had time to slip over and recover – from 25-yards beat Tim Howard to put the Blues in front. The outstanding Florent Malouda was unlucky to be denied a legitimate goal after that, the ball hitting the crossbar and landing a foot over the line, so no one could deny Chelsea deserved their victory.
