The League Cup final

Strikers Didier Drogba and Mateja Kezman scored in extra time to give Chelsea a 3-2 comeback victory over Liverpool in a rollercoaster League Cup final on Sunday.

Liverpool were heading for an upset win after Norwegian midfielder John Arne Riise volleyed home the fastest goal in League Cup final history after just 43 seconds.

The goal stunned a Blues side whose previously rock-solid confidence had been shaken by consecutive losses to Newcastle and Barcelona.
