Play by play
- 90'
The end. Chelsea have a vital away goal. Shevchenko looked good. But that John Terry injury may rule him out of the Carling Cup Final.
- 90'
Cech hoofs it long. And the other Cech claims.....
- 90'
Adriano wanted a foul. No dice. Lisandro Lopez then seizes on a long ball. Cuts inside. Cech make himself big and the striker can only fire wide.
- 90'
Ballack fouled again. Assuncao is the criminal.
- 90'
Into the 90th minute....
- 89'
Pepe fouls Ballack. And is booked. It was two-footed. But Ballack will be OK.
- 89'
Lampard tries an effort which was just stupid. Awfully wide. More like the start of an American Football game than a shot at a soccer goal.
- 88'
Essien hacked down. Chelsea will take their time.
- 87'
Kalou is on. Shevchenko is off. One of his best nights for Chelsea.
- 87'
Lampard gets a chance after some nice interplay. Shot is too close to the keeper.
- 85'
Bosingwa wins a corner with some real effort. Quaresma takes. Lampard clears.
- 84'
Adriano thought he had time. But was offside. And missed anyway.
- 83'
Ballack commits a foul. He's huffed and puffed all night.
- 82'
Shevchenko enjoying himself. Good ball in for Drogba but a header when he could have taken it down. He had time.
- 81'
Ballack booked. He makes a silly tackle. But it was a harsh booking.
- 80'
Mikel drifts a long pass to Drogba. But he can't reach his telescopic leg far enough.
- 79'
Ballack's shot comes off the head of Shevchenko. All Chelsea pressure now.
- 78'
Shevchenko shoots from a ridiculous distance. He's in confident mood tonight.
- 77'
Great move from Chelsea. Lampard passes wide. Drogba's angle is too narrow and he hits the post. Unlucky but better.
- 76'
Handball by Porto's Cech? The Chelsea fans think so.
- 76'
Postiga goes off for Adriano.
- 76'
Shevchenko on a run and has a shot. Just wide. He's looked good tonight.
- 75'
Drogba drifts the ball into Lampard. And a foul is given. Against Lampard. For handball maybe. It looked more like a foul.
- 75'
Quaresma on a charge. But cannot hold on to the ball.
- 73'
And Liverpool have the lead in Barcelona! Riise!
