Rafa Benitez Bids Adieu

Rafa Benitez parted ways with Liverpool on Thursday, after 6 years.

According to the British media Benitez was paid around 3.0 million pounds ($4.42 million) although he had agreed on a five-year contract in March last year. The terms of that deal stated that the Spaniard was entitled to a severance package of approximately 16.0 million pounds, but with Liverpool almost facing debt, the club would have struggled to pay him off in full.

Chelsea make it a double!

Drogba’s 58th minute free-kick saw Chelsea through to win the FA Cup and complete a Double this season under new manager – Carlo Ancelotti.

Nonetheless, this win wouldn’t be possible without Cech’s penalty save. Kevin-Prince Boateng missed the 55th minute penalty. Lampard also missed a 87th minute penalty for Chelsea.

Ballack limped off and was replaced by Juliano Belletti in the 43rd minute.

Drogba has scored in every competitive game he has played in at Wembley – three finals and semi-finals. It was also his 37th goal of the season in all competitions.

Portsmouth almost equalised in the 82nd minute when a cross from substitute Nadir Belhadj was touched to safety by Terry as Piquionne waited to pounce.
