Chelsea did not lose the game because of the referee, they lost because they failed to score more goals than their opposition over 180 minutes.

At the end of the day, yes, the referee could have given a penalty. But, if you need to shoot from the penalty spot to score, you do not deserve to be in a European Cup final.

The fouls denied them goalscoring opportunities, hence why they were penalties.

You'd be complaining if you were in the same situation.

Nice slant on it "a save". But yes, hes just human after all, after seeing Drogba deck it every time someone came within arms width of him, its bound to have an effect on penalty claims. Hes only human!

What Drogba does should have no effect on other penalty claims, it's completely irrelevant.

Maybe if Dogbaw never went to ground with a shotgun injury every time someone looked at him teh ref would have been a bit more willing to give a pen.

The ref would have been more likely to give penalties for a foul on Malouda, a save by Pique and a save by Eto'o if Drogba didn't dive? Alriiiiight.

Makes it acceptable for role models to millions of children show a complete lack of respect to another human being.

You say Drogba is human so it's acceptable. But the ref is human, and 'mistakes' are acceptable. Doesn't mean he or anyone deserves that kind of disrespect.

Oh man, don't come the role model, children were watching bullshit.

It's an emotional game, it was after 9 on the night, people always swear during football.

I can understand Drogba's passionate response, the ref robbed them, simple as that.

People always talk about footballers just caring about money, a guy loses the plot because he lost and he gets stick for it.

I remember once in a leisure league game, it was 2 - 2, we got clean through on goal, 2 of us on the goalkeeper....and the ref blew the full time whistle.

We went **** crazy, we wanted to deck the ref.

I can only imagine how being robbed in a champions league semi final can make you feel!!

Drogba losing the plot and sky forget to cut it

Love the way they all gasp

Chelsea fans, every single one of them thats phoning in to talksport, backing Drogba up. Unreal.

So they should.

Drogba's human, he's just been robbed of playing in the biggest club match in europe, you don't think he's gonna be angry?

Put yourself in his situation.

heystally, in recent weeks, we've had tonights match, which was very exciting, the 3 - 1 against Liverpool which was a good game, the 4 - 4 with Liverpool which was the game of the season and the 4 - 3 against Bolton which was incredible....

...boring? Nah.

Can anyone notice the common denominator?

Last years final - dull.

Barcelona v Chelsea - dull.

Chelsea v Barcelona - dull.

Chelsea 4 Liverpool 4 - dull

Dont get people calling Barcelona one of the best teams in europe..

Very rarely perform against English teams and poor again tonight despite the away goal.

Well obviously they're one of the best teams in europe, they're in the champions league final!

The ref robbed them of the biggest match in club football!!

Of course they're going to react like that, they're human.

Somebody should have chinned the bald bastard.

Drogba HAHAHAHAHAHA

What a **** legend.

Guardiola's flies are open!

Sexy!

You sick, sick man.

You know you're gonna look for it next time it cuts to him :winkold:

Guardiola's flies are open!

Sexy!

Yaya Toure is just a beast. He's towering over Drogba in terms of height and build.

Man Utd will beat Barca I think. Man Utd - Chelsea is much harder to call.

Definitely not a penalty imo. Just a coming together in the box between Alvez and Drogba, not enough contact if any, to warrant Drogba going down.

Alves isn't black, Abidal was the defender and he tripped him with his left leg.

Barca are getting shagged!!

Should have been a penalty.

WHAT A **** GOAL!!!!!!

Love that guy.

Why are people analysing the life and motives of a Nigerian Arsenal fan that none us know?

Who cares?

That should be rescinded.

Man Utd will really miss him if he's out.

Whoa, what a counter attack.

Is it me or does the co commentator on ITV want to actually have sex with Utd?

Also, Ronaldo's freeicks, just hits it hard yes?

Why so much credit, surely someone like Beckham who tries to put it in a particular spot is harder than Ronaldos, he just hits it really hard and hopes it moves?

Yea, it's really easy to do what Ronaldo does.....

...hence why everybody other player is ratting these freekicks in by 'just hitting them hard', oh wait, they're not...

Ronaldo's too good, what a hit son.

Tie over in 10 minutes.
