Good morning, it has been a roller- coaster 12 months for Chelsea, but | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
if they win the final, they will end the year as world club | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
champions. Something that was unthinkable back in March. That was | :00:45. | :00:55. | |
:00:55. | :00:56. | ||
the month when the manager was sacked and the club was in disarray. | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
Roberto di Matteo has been appointed interim manager. Under | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
him, they regrouped and went on to lift the FA Cup and Champions | :01:04. | :01:14. | |
:01:14. | :01:19. | ||
League in a dramatic fashion. Chelsea are champions of Europe! | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
They started this season in fine style, but early exit from the | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
Champions League saw Roberto di Matteo lose his job and Rafael | :01:30. | :01:38. | |
Benitez have pointed to a mixed reception. After a difficult start, | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
Chelsea have won their last three matches and looked in fine form | :01:43. | :01:53. | |
:01:53. | :01:54. | ||
against Monterrey in the semi- finals. Their opponents Corinthians | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
won the competition in 2000, beating a fellow Brazilian team and | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
a final. They will have plenty of support in Japan for the game and | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
they brushed aside Al Ahly, the African champions in their semi- | :02:08. | :02:17. | |
:02:18. | :02:18. | ||
final on Wednesday. The Europeans have won the trophy the last five | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
times, can Chelsea make it six? Welcome. I am joined by Pat Nevin | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
and Robbie Savage. Rafa Benitez could win a first trophy as interim | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
manager, less than a month in charge. The Corinthians, the South | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
Americans, who take the tournament seriously. Not just the South | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
Americans, everybody else in the world apart from the Europeans take | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
it seriously. He would like to come back with the trophy and anything | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
he could do to make the Chelsea fans love him that little bits more | :02:58. | :03:07. | |
would be really good. They were impressive in the semi-final. | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Especially with David Luiz in midfield. Possibly making changes | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
today. I thought it was an attacking team. I think he will | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
revert to the Rafa Benitez way, with more defensive mind today. | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
you think that Chelsea are favourites? Very much favour at. I | :03:27. | :03:37. | |
have watched Corinthians and thought there is not one man in | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
their team that man would buy. I think he is comfortable in the job. | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Understandably, he was looking nervous and shell-shocked, in some | :03:47. | :03:54. | |
ways, but he has grown into it. Time with the players in Japan, he | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
gets to know them personally and not just for their capabilities and | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
footballers, but as people. You need to get to know them as people. | :04:02. | :04:10. | |
That happens on tour. And being brought in possibly to get the best | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
out of Fernando Torres. Five goals in three games, E he is getting | :04:15. | :04:25. | |
:04:25. | :04:26. | ||
back to his self. -- his old self-. Technically, as a footballer, I do | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
not think he has been the greatest. We have the pace which she has lost. | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
Keep it simple, which she has been doing. You will never stop a good | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
striker on the ball. When he finishes well, look at this season. | :04:43. | :04:50. | |
Everything he finishes with one touch looks good. There are three | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
changes that Rafa Benitez has made changes that Rafa Benitez has made | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
for the final. Petr Cech is in goal. An interesting back line. David | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
Luiz was the holding midfield player and he is now beside Gary | :05:07. | :05:17. | |
:05:17. | :05:19. | ||
Cahill. Moses in place of Oscar. David Luiz Comer a holding midfield | :05:19. | :05:29. | |
:05:29. | :05:35. | ||
player? Decline. -- deep lying. The other players who have come in, I | :05:35. | :05:42. | |
can understand why he brought Moses in. He gives more power, more | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
defensiveness, more directness, but it is about getting Juan Mata | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
Central. He moves in central and that is why Oscar sits out. It is | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
sad for him, because he is playing a Brazilian team. Frank Lampard | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
will be the holding midfielder. His range of passing, he is the one | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
getting the ball. His range of passing... I think Frank Lampard, I | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
would keep him. For the experience. In recent times, you have seen John | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
Terry missing, Lampard missing. That is the time they need to look | :06:21. | :06:31. | |
:06:31. | :06:35. | ||
at those people. And the captaincy? Rafa Benitez will also have that | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
about him. He will do something unusual. When everybody has written | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
off Frank Lampard. Lots of pictures of him walking about moping in the | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
training ground, suddenly he is captain in central midfield. It | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
annoys people sometimes and I think he enjoys that. I would have loved | :06:54. | :07:04. | |
:07:04. | :07:07. | ||
to have seen David Luiz keep this place. Azpilicueta was the weak | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
link in that game. I can see why he has moved to right-back. It is the | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
fourth time an English side has contested the Cup, with one win to | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
contested the Cup, with one win to contested the Cup, with one win to | :07:20. | :07:29. | |
date. Manchester United took part in a | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
tournament to be forgotten. The European champions went out in the | :07:32. | :07:42. | |
:07:42. | :07:47. | ||
group stage -- stage. Liverpool last in the final five years later | :07:47. | :07:57. | |
:07:57. | :08:01. | ||
to Sao Paulo. Liverpool for a third time a been. Manchester United | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
became the sole world club champions in 2008, thanks to a goal | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
from Wayne Rooney against the Ecuadorian team. The it is fair to | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
say European sides have dominated the tournament over the past five | :08:18. | :08:27. | |
years. The European teams want to win it. | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
But, maybe, less so the Europeans, maybe the British have not taken it | :08:33. | :08:39. | |
as seriously. The English league does not take it seriously. If you | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
get into the final and you are Barcelona, you would take it | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
seriously. If you have South American players, you will take it | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
seriously. They want to win the competition, as David Luiz said. | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
You want to see the best teams to win it. The bigger names to score, | :09:00. | :09:09. | |
no better example the last time. Barcelona. The two goals, Lionel | :09:10. | :09:19. | |
:09:20. | :09:20. | ||
Messi is a genius. Watch this as he went around the keeper. That was | :09:20. | :09:30. | |
:09:30. | :09:30. | ||
like Pat Nevin! It is impossibly quick. The best player you have | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
seen? It hurts me to say it because I admired the ability of Maradona | :09:36. | :09:46. | |
:09:46. | :09:47. | ||
and the personality of Pele. Chelsea, it would be fantastic to | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
win this trophy. Chelsea fans are hurting because they have gone out | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
of the Champions League so early. They are the champions of Europe, | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
but it is hurting them already. But in 90 minutes, it would help if | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
they could say they are champions they could say they are champions | :10:04. | :10:12. | |
they could say they are champions of the world. | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
We can go over to the stadium. The atmosphere in Yokohama is building. | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
The Chelsea team are on the pitch. I am joined by Henry winter from | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
the Telegraph. A showcase final. Both teams will want to win. What | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
beast would this give Chelsea, winning tonight? It is like being | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
in downtown Sao Paulo. It is a big night. They have come under | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
criticism since dropping out of the Champions League and Rafa Benitez | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
is not popular among the fans. If he could return to Stamford Bridge | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
with them as champions of the world there might be forgiveness. Rafa | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
Benitez likes a final. A chance to pit his wits against another team. | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
12 finals in eight years. Remember the great nights in Istanbul and | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
afternoons in Cardiff when he can outwit another manager. This is a | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
big test. It is a good team with players like Danilo and Paulinho, | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
who want to impress the European audience. Frank Lampard is back. | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
What game can we expect from Chelsea? We saw high-tempo against | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
Monterrey. If you look at Corinthians, they are defensively | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
sound and light to hit on the counter. Chelsea will have a lot of | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
possession. Moses, he is playing and Juan Mata, he is having a | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
fantastic season and also Fernando Torres, as well. It is building in | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
Yokohama. 20,000 Corinthians fans, and it feels like a lot more. Back | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
to the studio. We can hear from the Chelsea | :11:51. | :12:01. | |
:12:01. | :12:11. | ||
manager who could win his first I was waiting for a top side and | :12:11. | :12:19. | |
then you have this chance. We will see what happens. You can be in a | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
team in the middle of the table and have a job guarantee and everybody | :12:24. | :12:32. | |
will say you are fantastic, and you can be ten years winning nothing. | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
In this club, in six months, you could win three or four trophies. | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
This is a top side already. It has won trophies. You can improve the | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
team. You can create something if you have time. In football, you | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
never know now. It could be three years, three months, but you have | :12:55. | :13:03. | |
to do your job every day, thinking how to improve the team. I think | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
every time, every day, every week, maybe the number of fans will | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
change. It is easy to say fans now, but, after the improvement of the | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
team, the way we play and the style we have, a lot of fans will say, | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
maybe we were too hard and we will have to give him the chance to | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
bring the confidence back to the team. I am sure that the fans want | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
us to win. My idea is clear. I want to win every game, the fans want to | :13:36. | :13:46. | |
win every game. When I decided to come, I knew I was signing a | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
contract of six or seven months and I was not thinking about in the | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
future, after this seven months. It is football. You never know. | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
Everybody is talking. You never know, the question for me, I know | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
football depends on the time. If we are winning the Champions League, | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
best in the world, and he has a fantastic record, we will see if he | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
comes, and if we have won a lot of trade is, I will be pleased anyway. | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
-- trophies. The new players are good. Young players. They will need | :14:26. | :14:32. | |
to settle down. I am sure they will do well because they have quality. | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
The players who are getting older, you have to change some of them. | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
How many can you change? How long can they play? It depends on | :14:41. | :14:47. | |
individuals. When you see one of your players, it does not matter | :14:47. | :14:53. | |
the name, scoring goals, you are pleased. It is a player like | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
Fernando, signed for Liverpool, being good for us, you say yes. He | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
is working hard like the rest of the team. Creating more chances | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
said that he can score more goals. We have changed two or three things, | :15:08. | :15:15. | |
two of three things he had to change. He has lost power. He was a | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
powerful player and he needs to come back to his level and that is | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
a question of time. Playing games is always more difficult, but the | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
way we are coaching him, we are trying to improve his fitness. It | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
will be an advantage for him. He has the believe he can continue | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
:15:42. | :15:42. | ||
scoring goals and that is good for To win a trophy is important. In | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
this case, it is my third final. If you are in the final, you have to | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
win the final. It will be important because the Corinthians are a tough | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
team to play. They are a well organised team, they have some good | :15:58. | :16:06. | |
players. Tactically is not easy to approach the game because they are | :16:06. | :16:14. | |
strong and they are well organised. You have to have players and have | :16:14. | :16:21. | |
confidence in your team. He has got a great record when it comes to | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
finals. He is looking for his 9th victory in 12 finals. It should be | :16:27. | :16:33. | |
sensational. Some of them he has walked into and fallen into. This | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
one he has fallen into, other than the semi-final. It is odd looking | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
at him and listening to him speaking, it is his demeanour that | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
jumps out at me. He is not exactly apologetic, but he is not very | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
philosophical. He is very friendly, almost somebody who wants to be | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
liked. That is what he is trying to break through wore that anything | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
else. The fact that maybe some of the Chelsea fans are softening a | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
bit towards him. That might help, but what helps his winning games | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
and winning trophies, nothing else. He has had six games in charge at | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
Stamford Bridge, what do you make of his record? It is decent. He has | :17:20. | :17:27. | |
had a couple of draws. And the semi-final against Monterey was | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
good. The performance at West Ham was offal, especially in the second | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
half, but in the first half they could have been three or a four up. | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
He is slowly getting to grips with the situation and the players with | :17:40. | :17:47. | |
him. I think he is a fantastic manager. If Chelsea were to employ | :17:47. | :17:53. | |
him on a full-time basis, I think he is a fantastic manager. Pat. | :17:53. | :18:03. | |
:18:03. | :18:04. | ||
he is growing on me all the time. It should matter in the longer term. | :18:04. | :18:10. | |
He is a good manager. He cannot stop tweaking and changing. To date | :18:10. | :18:20. | |
I came into the studio looking at the midfield. There are four | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
different ways we can explain it, but he moved them back and that is | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
typical of him. He keeps them on their toes. That can be a good | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
thing or a bad thing. If you are playing really well, three or a | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
four games in a row, and you have a great run and you are dropped. For | :18:43. | :18:49. | |
goodness sake. It you have just come into hear Pat talk about the | :18:49. | :18:57. | |
teams, let's reiterate what Rafael Benitez has gone for in the final. | :18:57. | :19:05. | |
David Louie goes into centre-back. Frank Lampard is captain. Victor | :19:05. | :19:13. | |
Moses comes in for an Oscar. No magic. They will be facing a few | :19:13. | :19:21. | |
Brazilians when it comes to the Corinthians. In the previous game | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
Oscar started bright at the start doing on his dummies and flicks and | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
step overs and that was very Brazil and South American and we enjoyed | :19:31. | :19:41. | |
:19:41. | :19:45. | ||
watching it in the studio. This is the first one. Everyone else joined | :19:45. | :19:55. | |
:19:55. | :19:59. | ||
When you do that sort of step over, you almost miss it, but it is | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
lightning and you almost destroyed a defender. It looks simple, but he | :20:04. | :20:11. | |
is one of the best. Then it they went for it after that. Two back- | :20:11. | :20:20. | |
heels. That is samba football, let's be fair. It is a joy to watch. | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
You are thinking, are you overdoing it a little bit, you have not won | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
the game yet, but another part of me was thinking, I thought they | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
were supposed to be entertaining. The a were playing against Monterey, | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
though, let's not get carried away. But they have got to be the team in | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
front of them. Let's be totally fair and honest here, it is | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
Monterey. They are not going to do that against Manchester United or | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
Manchester City. They might do it against the Corinthians and the | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
Corinthians might do it back against them. They are not the most | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
artistic team you have seen out of Brazil, but they might try a little | :21:04. | :21:11. | |
bit of that themselves. You have both seen Corinthians in this | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
tournament. This is the team Tite has gone with. What you think of | :21:15. | :21:22. | |
that? Rafts will be the one that gets a little bit forward. He gets | :21:22. | :21:32. | |
a lot of phrase. He flattered to deceive. -- Ralf. I was not sure | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
about him. He had one fantastic chance, but other than that he did | :21:36. | :21:43. | |
not do very much. To be fair, I was expecting a lot more from him, and | :21:43. | :21:51. | |
there were better performances. The goalscorer looks like quite a | :21:51. | :22:01. | |
:22:01. | :22:05. | ||
natural goalscorer. He will take them. He is not a Brazilian player. | :22:05. | :22:13. | |
The ball into the box was too high. It was terrific technique, but the | :22:13. | :22:21. | |
keeper could have come for it. To generate the power was fantastic. | :22:21. | :22:29. | |
He was their best player for me on the night. I thought Alessandro was | :22:29. | :22:37. | |
extraordinary. One of the right backs from Brazil. We have full- | :22:37. | :22:44. | |
backs, but how many actually think they are centre-forwards as well. | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
It is a bit like the David Luiz syndrome. Normally they would want | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
to play it wide. That is not very subtle and sophisticated, that is | :22:57. | :23:05. | |
the board does a method. When he gets the ball, he goes forward. He | :23:05. | :23:12. | |
keeps ongoing. By the way, I think I will keep ongoing. He goes all | :23:12. | :23:22. | |
:23:22. | :23:23. | ||
the way into the box. That is where he is aiming, he is a full-back. I | :23:23. | :23:30. | |
like him. However, he is also their weakness. Just like every other | :23:30. | :23:40. | |
full-back from Brazil he cannot defend. He gets himself lost a | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
little bit and he is not the best on the ball. When he is defending | :23:47. | :23:57. | |
:23:57. | :23:57. | ||
he looks as if he is carrying a pie and a board to too much as well. -- | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
a pound too much. Predictions. got a lot of stick off the | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
Corinthian fans want Twitter. I think Chelsea will win it. They are | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
the better team and they have got the better players. I think Chelsea. | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
I would love Chelsea to get an early goal because it would open | :24:19. | :24:27. | |
the game up. Let's hope so. It is time for the club world final, | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
Chelsea against Corinthians in your car Hummer. Your commentators are | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
Mark Bright and Guy Mowbray. Good morning, everybody, that is | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
what it is all about. It is to become crowned the world's best | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
club football team. That might sound more grand than it is, but | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
that is what is at stake, that is what the trophy is for and the | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
badge of honour the winners will get to wear on their shirts for the | :25:02. | :25:08. | |
next year. If Corinthians when, it will be a huge steel. In Brazil | :25:08. | :25:16. | |
this means everything. For the whole of South America this | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
competition always has huge importance attached to it. They | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
might want to try and level the playing field a little bit in that | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
the European champions have won the last five editions of this | :25:30. | :25:39. | |
competition. AC Milan, Manchester United, Inter Milan two years ago. | :25:39. | :25:47. | |
Frank Lampard wears the captain's armband for Chelsea today. At close | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
quarters with Sepp Blatter. He might want to give him a nudge | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
about technology! Technology is being used in this tournament, but | :25:56. | :26:03. | |
such is the weight of the world it has not been needed just as yet. | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
The goal referee system as yet again is in operation. Chelsea's | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
Les said the ball felt a bit heavier. There are signs as all | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
around the goalpost. You are not going to see them. There is a | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
bleeper attached to the referee's wrist and should the ball crossed | :26:26. | :26:36. | |
:26:36. | :26:37. | ||
the line, he will know before anybody else. In 2000 Manchester | :26:37. | :26:47. | |
:26:47. | :26:55. | ||
United played in it, having boycotted another cup to do so. | :26:55. | :27:05. | |
:27:05. | :27:29. | ||
This is a side that shows that one Three changes from the team that | :27:29. | :27:39. | |
:27:39. | :27:57. | ||
beat Monterey. Coming in his stadium in Yokohama for this one. | :27:57. | :28:04. | |
Huge numbers of Corinthians supporters. The officials are | :28:04. | :28:11. | |
Turkish. The referee took charge of Chelsea's game against Barcelona in | :28:11. | :28:20. | |
the Champions League last year. John Terry was sent off. He is | :28:21. | :28:24. | |
recovering from injury and I am sure he will be watching with the | :28:24. | :28:34. | |
:28:34. | :28:37. | ||
rest of you. Tite, the coach of Corinthians. His playing career | :28:37. | :28:46. | |
ended at 27. He studied physical education under the Yuri Felipe | :28:46. | :28:51. | |
Scolari. Rafael Benitez settling in as interim manager. This is his 7th | :28:51. | :29:00. | |
in charge on his 26th day in the job. Acceptance? Not yet, from the | :29:00. | :29:10. | |
:29:10. | :29:39. | ||
stand to mark some respect for those killed so tragically in | :29:39. | :29:49. | |
:29:49. | :30:22. | ||
Corinthians supporters. More than 20,000 of them. More have travelled | :30:22. | :30:26. | |
since now the team has made its way through to the final. They are very | :30:26. | :30:31. | |
much the people's club. There has been talk of fans begging and | :30:31. | :30:37. | |
borrowing to get to Japan to see this game. Do not tell them that | :30:37. | :30:43. | |
the World Club Cup does not matter. It seemed to matter to Chelsea by | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
the players'' demeanour on this trip. You could see in the tunnel | :30:46. | :30:56. | |
:30:56. | :31:07. | ||
how focused they were. Can they get hope it stays that way, Mark Bright. | :31:08. | :31:12. | |
Yes, it is a sharp start. It matters to the South Americans and | :31:12. | :31:18. | |
I think it matters to everybody else who enters the fray. Six | :31:18. | :31:24. | |
European names on the trophy. Chelsea 1-2 at their name. There | :31:24. | :31:30. | |
has been intensity to their game. I watched a couple of games. I | :31:30. | :31:34. | |
thought Chelsea have the ability, right through the squad, to win | :31:34. | :31:44. | |
:31:44. | :31:45. | ||
this tonight. Juan Mata scored in his last four games. Only just | :31:45. | :31:49. | |
behind Fernando Torres. They seem to have enjoyed playing together. | :31:49. | :31:54. | |
The he has a different role today. As one of the holding midfield | :31:54. | :32:00. | |
players. Frank has had 20 goals a season for the last few seasons and | :32:00. | :32:07. | |
now he has had to leave that job to others. His is a deeper role. | :32:07. | :32:12. | |
is a terrific noise. Even when they got up to warm up against Monterrey | :32:12. | :32:18. | |
on Thursday. The Japanese supporters hold Chelsea dear. Very | :32:18. | :32:22. | |
attached to Frank Lampard. They would be crestfallen if he leaves | :32:22. | :32:28. | |
the club, as is mooted to be the case. Uncle Harry at QPR is linked. | :32:28. | :32:33. | |
Look at the line-up today. Petr Cech, Ashley Cole, friend Lampard, | :32:33. | :32:38. | |
over 30. Everybody else is in their mid-twenties, late twenties. There | :32:38. | :32:42. | |
comes a time for everybody to move on. He has had a fabulous career at | :32:42. | :32:47. | |
Chelsea if he does move on. At the moment, they are in trouble with | :32:47. | :32:53. | |
their midfield players. Leeds United on Wednesday. Ramirez and | :32:53. | :32:59. | |
Mikel suspended. He might be playing in West Yorkshire on | :32:59. | :33:05. | |
Wednesday night. David Luiz is another option, having produced a | :33:05. | :33:10. | |
sparkling first half hour against Monterrey. We are expecting a tough | :33:10. | :33:15. | |
test from the Brazilians, more than they got from the Mexicans. The is | :33:15. | :33:23. | |
no question about it. -- there is no question. Both teams are playing | :33:23. | :33:33. | |
:33:33. | :33:33. | ||
the same formation. With a sole striker. Corinthians set up to | :33:33. | :33:39. | |
frustrate. That is what their game is based on. It had been argued the | :33:39. | :33:45. | |
link with the coach, they are the most European in style. Perhaps | :33:45. | :33:51. | |
lacking the flair of some of the others. What we always expect from | :33:51. | :33:55. | |
the Brazilians. Something at the Olympics, they have flair players | :33:55. | :33:59. | |
and they play with freedom. When they do not play like that, if we | :33:59. | :34:09. | |
:34:09. | :34:16. | ||
have not had many yellow cards in the competition and I think that is | :34:16. | :34:19. | |
the way the Turkish referee is going to do his business again. Had | :34:19. | :34:24. | |
that been a standard club match, not something that can verge on the | :34:24. | :34:28. | |
exhibition, that would have been a yellow card. Weekend see the | :34:28. | :34:34. | |
reaction of the players. -- and we cannot see. It is a normal | :34:34. | :34:38. | |
challenge in the Premier League. In the Champions League, it goes | :34:38. | :34:48. | |
:34:48. | :34:55. | ||
punished. The sharing of studs in target for Chelsea. Maybe as soon | :34:56. | :35:05. | |
:35:06. | :35:09. | ||
as the January window. It is a Brazilian connection in the Chelsea | :35:09. | :35:19. | |
:35:19. | :35:38. | ||
line-up. -- Ramires. Ramires is a toes. What a challenge that was. A | :35:38. | :35:44. | |
you have to be careful there, Guerrero. Get the timing right. -- | :35:44. | :35:54. | |
:35:54. | :36:03. | ||
the captain, knew why he was doing. The little body-check. -- knew what | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
he was doing. David Luiz won the ball and he is off on the counter. | :36:07. | :36:13. | |
He played it and moved. Alessandro body checks him. That was a booking | :36:13. | :36:23. | |
:36:23. | :36:23. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :36:23. | :37:06. | |
minutes to go against Al Ahly. winning goal against the Egyptians. | :37:06. | :37:16. | |
:37:16. | :37:25. | ||
this year, spent all of his senior playing career in Germany. He has a | :37:25. | :37:35. | |
:37:35. | :37:47. | ||
couple of titles? He has had a good when the ball went back for read in | :37:47. | :37:53. | |
Hazzard, he held the edge of the 18-yard box. Midfield players | :37:53. | :38:03. | |
:38:03. | :38:08. | ||
of his team-mates having lost on the bowling alley. That was the | :38:08. | :38:17. | |
forfeit! His colleagues said he is a better left back and he is at | :38:17. | :38:23. | |
serving drinks and food. They get their money's worth out of that, | :38:23. | :38:31. | |
the players. And to look at the Corinthians supporters. Out here in | :38:31. | :38:35. | |
huge numbers. Local Japanese support is generally with Chelsea. | :38:35. | :38:45. | |
:38:45. | :38:56. | ||
Such is the weight that the Premier and made a diagonal run. There was | :38:56. | :39:06. | |
:39:06. | :39:34. | ||
no out ball to the right-hand side, Fabio Santos, who did not have the | :39:34. | :39:40. | |
right weight on the ball. That is a feature. Sandals on the left, | :39:40. | :39:45. | |
Alessandro on the right. -- Fabio Santos. If they get the ball, they | :39:45. | :39:49. | |
break forward. Forget their defensive responsibilities and | :39:49. | :39:59. | |
:39:59. | :40:09. | ||
controlled by Fernando Torres. Moses had a go and blasted it | :40:09. | :40:15. | |
against Fabio Santos and Tom Quelly got the deflection. It looked | :40:15. | :40:25. | |
:40:25. | :40:43. | ||
Cahill and somehow it stayed out. Gary Cahill knew. No appeals for it | :40:43. | :40:50. | |
to go over the line. A fantastic save. When the ball dropped for a | :40:50. | :40:55. | |
second chance to Gary Cahill, I thought it was in. That is the | :40:55. | :41:05. | |
:41:05. | :41:19. | ||
closest we have come to testing if patience of the referee will be | :41:19. | :41:24. | |
tested because of the reaction of the Corinthians players. My to | :41:24. | :41:31. | |
Moses claiming to the referee he got snowball. -- Victor Moses. | :41:32. | :41:36. | |
Frank Lampard is pleading here. The referee is trying to show everyone | :41:36. | :41:43. | |
he is in control of the situation. I cannot believe he has not given a | :41:43. | :41:50. | |
yellow card! That is reckless and dangerous. Ralf has his arms open | :41:50. | :41:56. | |
wide. Obviously, the referee wants to keep 11 players on the pitch. | :41:56. | :42:02. | |
That is a yellow card all day long, at least. There is something nice | :42:02. | :42:07. | |
about the fact it was a busier and who has gone in on a Brazilian. -- | :42:07. | :42:12. | |
a Brazilian has gone in on a Brazilian. It shows take a chance, | :42:13. | :42:19. | |
and you can get away with it today. I think he is at the limit. | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
next will probably go into the book. Paying the price of rash challenges | :42:24. | :42:33. | |
by each side. The still have to play by the FIFA laws of the game, | :42:33. | :42:41. | |
don't you? Sepp Blatter is watching. Consistency, that is what you want. | :42:41. | :42:50. | |
That challenge, they are up in arms in any league all over the world, | :42:50. | :43:00. | |
:43:00. | :43:14. | ||
Torres. Playing a high in line, Corinthians. When the ball goes | :43:14. | :43:21. | |
back, the Defence steps up. This is the incident. It drops to Gary | :43:21. | :43:24. | |
Cahill and you are thinking, anywhere up in the air, stops with | :43:24. | :43:30. | |
the body, stops with the legs. Did not go over the line. Good reaction. | :43:30. | :43:36. | |
Gary Cahill got a good connection. Cassio stops it. Not one Chelsea | :43:36. | :43:41. | |
player appealing that went over. was not even on the line. Cassio | :43:42. | :43:51. | |
:43:52. | :44:01. | ||
did not know where it was for a from Emerson. They call him Emerson | :44:01. | :44:11. | |
:44:11. | :44:12. | ||
Sheik because he won three caps for Qatar. He is now a naturalised | :44:12. | :44:16. | |
citizen of Qatar. He played in Japan. The head three clubs in a | :44:16. | :44:26. | |
:44:26. | :44:33. | ||
five-year spell. He was prolific Corinthians side are well versed a | :44:33. | :44:37. | |
football in this side of the world having spent some of their career | :44:37. | :44:42. | |
in Japan. It is a new experience for most of the Chelsea side and | :44:42. | :44:46. | |
the club, their first time in the country. The first time the Chelsea | :44:46. | :44:55. | |
supporters have been able to follow -- men here. It is reckoned about | :44:55. | :45:00. | |
100 came from London. Hats off to them. The it is expensive. We | :45:00. | :45:07. | |
played over there. 50,000 attended both games. It was fanatical. It | :45:07. | :45:17. | |
:45:17. | :45:35. | ||
Torres. We are seeing a few tackles in this tournament. Corinthians are | :45:35. | :45:39. | |
pushing up and playing quite high. They are pressing the ball in | :45:39. | :45:49. | |
:45:49. | :45:49. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :45:49. | :46:52. | |
who watched on Thursday he will be disappointed not to see David Luiz | :46:52. | :47:00. | |
further downfield. He has played left back for Benfica and Chelsea, | :47:00. | :47:06. | |
but essentially you want him to play where you have bought him to | :47:06. | :47:12. | |
play. John Terry is coming to the end of his career. He has got to | :47:12. | :47:20. | |
work at it, he has got to get the combination with Gary Cahill, or a | :47:20. | :47:30. | |
:47:30. | :47:57. | ||
Ivanovic, whoever it is. It is just Emerson did not make his mind up | :47:57. | :48:07. | |
:48:07. | :48:10. | ||
what he wanted to do quick enough. He does not do anything. Then he | :48:10. | :48:15. | |
narrowed his own angle, going away from the goal. David Luiz pushed | :48:15. | :48:21. | |
him away. But that was a good opening for the Corinthians. | :48:21. | :48:29. | |
Emerson is the reason the Corinthians art in this competition. | :48:29. | :48:38. | |
He scored both goals against Boca Juniors at the start of July. It is | :48:38. | :48:43. | |
the first time they have been crowned South American champions | :48:43. | :48:53. | |
:48:53. | :49:10. | ||
always likely to catch it. It went straight into his hands, it was not | :49:10. | :49:19. | |
really a problem. But the Corinthians and broke quickly. | :49:19. | :49:28. | |
Lampard was forward and that left Chelsea a bit exposed. He kept it | :49:28. | :49:38. | |
:49:38. | :50:15. | ||
in, but then he nearly came a Chelsea giving the ball away | :50:15. | :50:21. | |
unnecessarily. Chelsea have got a problem breaking down Corinthians' | :50:21. | :50:27. | |
defence. They do not seem to have the ball with any comfort in | :50:27. | :50:33. | |
Corinthians' 1/2. They have to get service in and keep the ball and | :50:33. | :50:38. | |
get Fernando Torres involved in the game. The midfield players are | :50:38. | :50:48. | |
:50:48. | :51:19. | ||
free kick. What a position to be awarded in. Absolutely and I am | :51:19. | :51:24. | |
convinced the referee is not going to issue a yellow card. He just | :51:24. | :51:34. | |
comes across. He leaves his leggy in. They might have the angle to | :51:34. | :51:41. | |
get into that far post. Hazzard is there, Frank Lampard is there as | :51:41. | :51:51. | |
:51:51. | :52:06. | ||
well. He will have the ability to with a little bit more finesse from | :52:06. | :52:16. | |
:52:16. | :52:24. | ||
Awful. Corinthians are away with Emerson, but that is good recovery | :52:24. | :52:33. | |
from David Luiz. We will give him credit for that. But not for that. | :52:33. | :52:38. | |
I think Emerson unclipped his ankle a little bit. Rafael Benitez is | :52:38. | :52:48. | |
shouting instructions. He is still hurt by seven years ago when he was | :52:48. | :52:52. | |
Liverpool manager by Sao Paulo when his team dominated the game and | :52:52. | :52:57. | |
lost 1-0. They had three goals disallowed and lost a penalty. | :52:57. | :53:07. | |
:53:07. | :53:11. | ||
Nothing went for them. Corinthians' goalkeeper was not even tested by | :53:11. | :53:21. | |
:53:21. | :53:21. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :53:21. | :54:54. | |
moment. They are not having the looking at somebody like Victor | :54:54. | :54:59. | |
Moses and a Eden Hazard, when they are on a one-to-one situation to | :54:59. | :55:04. | |
try and get past. But Corinthians put them under pressure all the | :55:04. | :55:10. | |
time, they chased the ball. When it goes to the wide players, have a go | :55:10. | :55:15. | |
and take somebody on. Once you get beyond defence, then you can pull | :55:15. | :55:20. | |
the ball back. At the moment Fernando Torres is just a spectator | :55:20. | :55:30. | |
:55:30. | :55:31. | ||
in the game. Come towards the ball as well. Turn and drop your | :55:31. | :55:35. | |
shoulder and go over the top. Make the Corinthians think about the | :55:35. | :55:39. | |
game a little bit. At the moment everything is in front of them and | :55:39. | :55:45. | |
they are very happy and comfortable. If you push up at the back, that | :55:45. | :55:52. | |
leaves space beyond. The referee had a good view and he checked with | :55:52. | :55:56. | |
his assistant. You can hear what the Corinthians' fans think about | :55:57. | :56:06. | |
:56:07. | :56:11. | ||
that. Gary Cahill gets back at him. That is a ridiculous died. If he | :56:11. | :56:21. | |
:56:21. | :56:21. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :56:21. | :57:31. | |
had gone down a little sooner, Ivanovic. He will be delighted how | :57:31. | :57:35. | |
they have started the game. Very aggressive and they have recovered | :57:35. | :57:42. | |
well and they have not given the ball away. Tite was pretty bullish | :57:42. | :57:47. | |
himself in the build-up to the game. He was saying how much he's | :57:47. | :57:51. | |
seriously wanted to win. He could not stress it enough, how much he | :57:51. | :58:01. | |
:58:01. | :58:15. | ||
wanted to win this for the offside? Fernando Torres just ahead | :58:16. | :58:25. | |
of the cross. A difference of opinion. He is one of those | :58:25. | :58:29. | |
footballers who is described as cerebral. He thinks about things a | :58:29. | :58:39. | |
:58:39. | :59:02. | ||
railway workers inspired by a London group called the Corinthians. | :59:02. | :59:11. | |
That is the second time Emerson has ballooned one. That was a chance. | :59:11. | :59:18. | |
Lack of concentration. I think he was trying to control it with the | :59:18. | :59:28. | |
:59:28. | :59:47. | ||
outside of his left foot. That was You S. They are based in the | :59:47. | :59:57. | |
:59:57. | :00:22. | ||
Fabio Santos was with him. wanted and out pass, something | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
:00:32. | :00:46. | ||
wider. In the end, Victor Moses Unnecessary. You can see it as he | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
was looking back. Did he slip? That was a lovely one-two he played with | :00:52. | :01:02. | |
:01:02. | :01:27. | ||
also won the Fair Play title in the Copa Libertadores competition. That | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
stayed down. I wonder if that would have happened if he had taken the | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
ball under control. That we as quick thinking. Clips his ankles. | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
He was onside. It was the stumble that cost him the chance to get to | :01:47. | :01:56. | |
the ball. The Corinthians substitutes getting this of -- | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
applause of the supporters. The Chelsea substitutes trying to pick | :02:01. | :02:11. | |
:02:11. | :02:20. | ||
of the game? It had been difficult for Chelsea to forge openings. | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
have not been able to have any controlled possession in the | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
Corinthians half. The talent behind the striker, they are under so much | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
pressure when they get the ball, having to go back. This is where | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
Chelsea usually have comfortable possession. Making the ball and go | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
wide. Corinthians have done a good number on them, pressing them hard | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
when they get the ball, forcing them back. Putting them under | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
pressure in areas where they are not used to being put under | :02:50. | :03:00. | |
:03:00. | :03:09. | ||
pressure, probably. Chelsea need to goal kick has been given, much to | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
the disbelief of Victor Moses. Taken by Fabio Santos. That's was | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
the best pass in the game. And we were talking about the diagonal, | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
missing out the left back. If he touches that on to his right for it | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
he can shoot and he was bringing him back to where the defenders | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
come to. It was an excellent pass, weight and everything. A quick | :03:33. | :03:43. | |
:03:43. | :03:43. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :03:43. | :04:39. | |
touch of the right foot, and you it was blocked by Ivanovic. It has | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
come off the post. It is a goal kick. Guerrero looking like he | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
would open it all up. Emerson could not turn the rebound in. You could | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
see how nervous the players were. David Luiz, he is frightened. It | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
was an excellent challenge from Gary Cahill. When it came back, I | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
think Guerrero took that in. It was tight anyway. That is the closest | :05:02. | :05:12. | |
:05:12. | :05:31. | ||
they have come. Signs of danger for the ball by Fabio Santos. Throw for | :05:31. | :05:41. | |
:05:41. | :05:44. | ||
Chelsea. Being willing to have a swing at it. He scored three times | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
in a row for the first time in his Chelsea career. People at home | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
would debate whether the goal against Monterrey was his. FIFA | :05:52. | :06:02. | |
:06:02. | :06:07. | ||
would hit it or not. Whatever you do, do it with conviction bus-stop | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
have a go. It was like his attempt at bowling. It was into the runners | :06:13. | :06:23. | |
:06:23. | :06:26. | ||
on the side! This competition would be great to put on his CV, but from | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
a Chelsea point of view, is it almost a no win Game For Rafa | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
Benitez. He has to win it to maintain the status quo. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
understand what you are saying. As fans and players know, winning | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
games, it is an important game to win. And it will soften it a little | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
bit. He is there till the end of the season and you might as well | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
get behind him and give him ago. The opening game, I could not | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
believe the noise. Part of it was frustration for Roberto di Matteo, | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
how popular he was as a player and a coach and what he achieved. But | :07:02. | :07:10. | |
now he is there, get behind him. suppose you can get behind somebody | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
without accepting them. That is one for the psychologist! The Spurs | :07:16. | :07:26. | |
:07:26. | :07:28. | ||
fans accepted George Graham! Ish. This is an area where they have not | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
been able to relax and keep the ball and work out an opening | :07:31. | :07:41. | |
:07:41. | :07:44. | ||
because they are always under start of the ball and got himself | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
in with a chance but the touch beat the finish. It was well smothered | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
by Cassio. He took a chance in coming out. It was a lovely ball | :07:53. | :08:02. | |
this time from friend Lampard. -- From Frank Lampard. It looked a | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
great touch at first. Playing on the shoulder, like he likes to do. | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
When it comes over the shoulder, a touch and he is unlucky. If he can | :08:11. | :08:21. | |
:08:21. | :08:30. | ||
get it on his left foot he can We were told he would come into the | :08:31. | :08:40. | |
:08:41. | :08:41. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :08:41. | :09:32. | |
has played for many teams in Brazil. think it was bound for the dull and | :09:32. | :09:41. | |
it was a good save by Cassio. for the goal. What a save. Fernando | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
Torres made a good run and did not get the ball. You can see it was | :09:45. | :09:55. | |
:09:55. | :09:56. | ||
going into the far corner. It is an exceptional save. Hazard is an | :09:56. | :10:06. | |
:10:06. | :10:12. | ||
option outside the box. Cassio handball is the decision. I | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
wondered what he was doing. cannot referee the game... If it is | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
a foul, the referee will give it. You cannot catch the ball and | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
somebody catches your ankle. The coach is having a go at David Luiz | :10:27. | :10:37. | |
:10:37. | :10:39. | ||
there. He is having a go back! a catch of the ankle. That is out | :10:39. | :10:47. | |
Rangers, isn't it?! -- outrageous. He called it, kept it, almost put | :10:47. | :10:55. | |
it up his shirt! It is my ball! It looks like a David Luiz was trying | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
to get out of the way. If the referee blows the whistle, he gives | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
the foul and he can take the free kick. He does not make his mind up | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
for him. We have seen some dubious tackling and he has allowed that to | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
go. He is thinking he is not going to get the free kick and force it. | :11:13. | :11:22. | |
You can see how much it means to Tite. He has presided over the best | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
time ever in the history of Corinthians and he wants to crown | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
it. This would be the crowning glory for him. Juan Mata. Held by | :11:30. | :11:40. | |
:11:40. | :11:58. | ||
Cassio. A wonderful strike. A is vulnerable in a one-on-one | :11:58. | :12:08. | |
:12:08. | :12:30. | ||
scoring. One sat on by the goalkeeper Cassio. Gary Cahill | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
having a strike from a corner and a superb save by the goalkeeper to | :12:35. | :12:45. | |
:12:45. | :12:49. | ||
keep out Victor Moses' after it. -- effort. Ashley Cole held his ground. | :12:49. | :12:59. | |
:12:59. | :13:03. | ||
Apologies for that. In front of the touch for instruction. He has not | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
had a lot to do. How about here? Petr Cech. Once his defenders to | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
deal with it once more and it is going to be a corner. -- he wants | :13:15. | :13:25. | |
:13:25. | :13:52. | ||
Amazon. He had to lunch. He did not get the ball, but it was the fact | :13:52. | :14:02. | |
:14:02. | :14:28. | ||
got the ball, it was a fair to do, either go past will come | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
inside quickly. Jorge Henrique was lucky to get the ball back, having | :14:33. | :14:43. | |
:14:43. | :15:12. | ||
Which team has shaded the first 45? On chances, Chelsea, but | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
Corinthians, I think they have had the majority of the play. Chelsea | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
have not have controls the area. Not the usual position they would | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
:15:34. | :15:49. | ||
hurt. Moses has come over to the left hand side and the need to keep | :15:49. | :15:57. | |
the ball in midfield, possession wise. Ramirez is on his last chance | :15:57. | :16:07. | |
:16:07. | :16:28. | ||
in terms of tackling. They have one of his fame as half-time talks. | :16:28. | :16:38. | |
:16:38. | :16:41. | ||
There is improvement to be worked upon for Chelsea. He will be saying, | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
can they continue like that throughout the second half? Will | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
Chelsea be allowed to pass and play? We shall save. We will have | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
the second half for you once everybody has taken a break. | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
Chelsea have been close to scoring, but have been kept out by that man, | :17:02. | :17:12. | |
:17:12. | :17:15. | ||
The title of best club in the world still very much up for grabs. | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
an open game, but I was not impressed with the first 15 or 20 | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
minutes. But they have grown into it. I do not think you could say | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
either team is on top. I think a draw is the fairest result at the | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
moment. In much improved Corinthians after what you saw in | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
their first game? They were decent against Al Ahly in the first half, | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
but today they have been more positive and they have created a | :17:43. | :17:50. | |
few chances themselves. But for me the best chance fell to Gary Cahill. | :17:50. | :18:00. | |
:18:00. | :18:01. | ||
This was the first chance to open We thought we might see that goal- | :18:01. | :18:10. | |
line technology at work here. unlucky, the keeper fell on it and | :18:10. | :18:20. | |
:18:20. | :18:21. | ||
he got his thigh to the ball. have scored 12 or 13 goals between | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
them and he is one of the most natural goalscorers. He will be fed | :18:26. | :18:33. | |
up that he did not finish it. He is capable of scoring. Moses had a | :18:33. | :18:42. | |
decent chance before half-time, but what a save it from the goalkeeper. | :18:42. | :18:48. | |
I think Gary Cahill had been running down blind alleys, but here | :18:48. | :18:57. | |
he confuses the defence. There is still plenty to do. But that was a | :18:57. | :19:05. | |
fabulous save. He gets a further half an inch with his fingers. | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
Nothing wrong with the play. Nothing wrong with the goalkeeper | :19:10. | :19:17. | |
either. Maybe he needed that because he was not doing well down | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
the right hand side. Switch over and give him a different vision and | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
he looks better. Corinthians have certainly pressed Chelsea, but they | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
had their own chances. They came close 10 minutes before half-time, | :19:31. | :19:39. | |
Emerson hitting the post. I think they were scared to tackle them in | :19:39. | :19:45. | |
there in case the referee gave a penalty. I think he should have | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
pulled it back. With Ivanovic on the line he is never going to | :19:50. | :19:59. | |
squeeze it through. Bat again Chelsea at times have looked a bit | :19:59. | :20:09. | |
:20:09. | :20:18. | ||
ropey. We have been watched closely by a couple of players. -- watching | :20:18. | :20:28. | |
closely. I think of going back to the normal positions, we all know | :20:28. | :20:38. | |
:20:38. | :20:40. | ||
David Luiz needs to have the right effect from the manager. He is very | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
strong. That was a lovely tackle. He is very sharp and he wants to go | :20:45. | :20:51. | |
forward. He is comfortable when he steps into midfield and that is | :20:51. | :21:00. | |
what makes him special. When he is in that area, watch Ramires in the | :21:00. | :21:07. | |
same position. He has not got the same vision as David Luiz. This is | :21:07. | :21:17. | |
:21:17. | :21:17. | ||
really good defending. That is just pure strength. That is rotten! | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
is being kind. As soon as you make a mistake, get back. He had a long | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
way to get back and he was second favourite, and then he gets a bit | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
relaxed. That is as close as he has made to a defensive mistake. If he | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
can get his head right and get a good manager behind him, and a | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
manager who will make him do the right things at the right times and | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
not take chances, I think he could be one of the best players in world | :21:46. | :21:52. | |
football. Week dismissing a little bit in this country, but I do not | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
think we should. Ramires's passing is not as sharp as it could be. But | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
we have seen it from Frank Lampard with those passes that we know. | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
is looking for a Fernando Torres all the time. They have got good | :22:09. | :22:16. | |
telepathy. He knows exactly where he is. That is absolutely fantastic. | :22:16. | :22:21. | |
That is the pass of the match for me. He is always looking for | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
Fernando Torres. That was a fantastic touch from Fernando | :22:24. | :22:31. | |
Torres. He could have scored, actually. It is almost going back | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
to a wide receiver. That was perfection. That is Hazard again, | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
another bad patch. On the whole I think Fernando Torres has done OK. | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
Again, some of his touches have been possible stock you have been | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
getting grief about Fernando Torres, it may be saying he is not the | :22:52. | :22:57. | |
perfect footballer. From what we have seen in the first half, his | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
first touch is, his all-round play, what have you made of him? I think | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
he is OK. That was a terrible first touch. I do not think he is a great | :23:11. | :23:18. | |
footballer. Yes, he has won trophies. He is a goalscorer. | :23:18. | :23:25. | |
here, a pass straight to them. Again he tried a flick and it did | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
not come off. If he controls a bat and knocks it off-white, that is | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
when I think he becomes a great player. When he tries to get | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
involved in the build up and the fancy stuff, that is not him. | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
Mike argument is he plays in Spain and you have got Davide silver, and | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
Juan matter and Iniesta, and they can all do that, and that is not | :23:52. | :24:00. | |
Fernando Torres' strength. I agree with Robbie on that. Is he trying | :24:00. | :24:08. | |
too hard? At the beginning of the season he was trying too hard. | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
Everybody says you bring the manager in and you get the best out | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
of Fernando Torres. He is not getting back to a player who does | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
what he did at Liverpool, it is finding out where a player is at | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
the moment than getting the strength out of them. It is very | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
simple and getting on the end of the ball when it is played in from | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
those great players. I do not think it comes naturally to him. He has | :24:33. | :24:40. | |
to work hard at his game. Ryan Giggs is a natural talent. Fernando | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
Torres looks as if he is fighting the ball at times. He is still a | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
great player, a great goalscorer, but technically...? That says it | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
all, really. 0-0 as it stands. Early this morning Al Ahly and | :24:57. | :25:07. | |
:25:07. | :25:20. | ||
to have conceded. There was total confusion between goalkeeper and | :25:20. | :25:30. | |
:25:30. | :25:40. | ||
defender. Less than three minutes played. That was unfortunate. He is | :25:40. | :25:50. | |
:25:50. | :25:56. | ||
unlucky not to have marked his debut with an equalising goal. A | :25:56. | :26:06. | |
:26:06. | :26:09. | ||
fine save. Jonathan Orozco. Excellent approach play from Al | :26:09. | :26:19. | |
:26:19. | :26:45. | ||
Ahly. The goalkeeper made a double right time. He slips it neatly over | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
the top of the goalkeeper and he has his third club World Cup goal | :26:50. | :26:59. | |
:27:00. | :27:03. | ||
Not long until the BBC's Sports Personality of the Year is | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
announced at the Excel Arena tonight, the climax to an | :27:07. | :27:16. | |
:27:17. | :27:55. | ||
It should be a great night. The coverage starts on the red button | :27:55. | :28:00. | |
from 6:15pm. If you want to remind themselves of some of the | :28:00. | :28:06. | |
highlights, tune in on Monday night for the 50 Greatest moments on BBC | :28:06. | :28:14. | |
Three at 8:30pm. Match of the date should be watching -- worth | :28:14. | :28:20. | |
watching later on tonight. We have got highlights of Chelsea versus | :28:20. | :28:30. | |
:28:30. | :28:49. | ||
# Pump Up the Volume. #. If you are just tuning in it is 0-0 in | :28:49. | :28:54. | |
Yokohama between Chelsea and Corinthians. Let's have a look at | :28:54. | :28:59. | |
what Corinthians have offered them. Have you been encouraged? I have | :28:59. | :29:03. | |
been impressed by them and they started well. Actually, they | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
started the last game quite well and they faded quite badly. I do | :29:07. | :29:12. | |
not know whether it was fitness or the end of a very long season. It | :29:12. | :29:18. | |
may well be that they tire again in this game. But in the first half | :29:18. | :29:25. | |
they kept on getting opportunities from the same sort of area. That | :29:25. | :29:31. | |
was poor defending. Too slow to get out. I did not think their shooting | :29:31. | :29:39. | |
was particularly good. You have got to get it on target. Anyone can | :29:39. | :29:47. | |
swing a leg at a ball. Poor defending from Gary Cahill. He got | :29:47. | :29:53. | |
his feet in the wrong position. But you have got to get back on target. | :29:53. | :29:59. | |
You will never score a goal if it is five miles over the bar. Those | :29:59. | :30:04. | |
were three good opportunities where they missed a chance. Maybe it is | :30:04. | :30:09. | |
the skill as well. We have seen a few nice touches from them. Yes, we | :30:09. | :30:19. | |
:30:19. | :30:30. | ||
have. You expect that with There we go, look at that. That is | :30:30. | :30:38. | |
fantastic skill. Never a penalty. He drive it through Gary Cahill's | :30:38. | :30:45. | |
legs. Fantastic. I am impressed by his close gills. I do not think he | :30:45. | :30:51. | |
has got enough to get away. That is what we were saying before the game, | :30:51. | :30:56. | |
the little flicks and the back heels, and I hope to see more work | :30:56. | :31:04. | |
in the second half. What else apart from goals? It has been even. I | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
would like to see Moses have a bit more influence in the game. I think | :31:09. | :31:14. | |
Frank Lampard has been OK as captain. But just a bit more energy. | :31:14. | :31:18. | |
If they can play at Premier League Tebbutt, I think they will win the | :31:18. | :31:25. | |
game. I wonder about the changes Rafael Benitez will make. Let's | :31:25. | :31:30. | |
rejoin our commentary team. The boys are there ready for the second | :31:30. | :31:40. | |
:31:40. | :31:59. | ||
been flying in for Chelsea. I think the last two finals they were 4-0 | :31:59. | :32:06. | |
and 3-0. I do not think we are going to get that to date! But you | :32:06. | :32:16. | |
:32:16. | :32:25. | ||
before has been decided by penalties and only one gone to | :32:25. | :32:28. | |
extra time. Barcelona beat in the Argentinian team after extra-time. | :32:29. | :32:37. | |
And guess who scored the winner? Tell me. Lionel Messi. Three years | :32:37. | :32:44. | |
ago, he was still doing it. Corinthians. Second half is under | :32:44. | :32:53. | |
way in Yokohama. The 2012 Copa Libertadores winners against the | :32:53. | :32:57. | |
2012 Uefa Champions League winners. Chelsea did it on their losses | :32:57. | :33:07. | |
:33:07. | :33:41. | ||
against Bayern Munich. Might that is they? No. In the first half, but | :33:41. | :33:51. | |
:33:51. | :34:10. | ||
in defence under pressure, now might have been offside -- onside, | :34:11. | :34:20. | |
but the change of direction was difficult. Ivanovic played the ball. | :34:20. | :34:30. | |
:34:30. | :34:36. | ||
Moses carried on jogging back. in the first half to take it. | :34:36. | :34:40. | |
Signed at the end of last year. He was at PSV Eindhoven in Holland | :34:40. | :34:45. | |
before that. Only made two appearances for the club in a fair | :34:45. | :34:54. | |
chunk of time. Took over from Julio Cesar. Not the Queens Park Rangers | :34:54. | :34:58. | |

showing. -- stud. Rafa Benitez with a constant stream of instructions | :36:54. | :37:00. | |

when he was in charge of Inter, they beat the Democratic Republic | :37:06. | :37:16. | |

could persistence from Ashley Cole. Let it run out of play, cuts it | :38:13. | :38:18. | |
back. The one from Juan Mata could have done with cutting out from the | :38:18. | :38:22. | |
edge of the box. As soon as the ball goes back, the whole of the | :38:22. | :38:27. | |
Corinthians defence run out as one, and press the person who is | :38:27. | :38:31. | |
shooting and leave people in there for the offside. They are very well | :38:31. | :38:41. | |
:38:41. | :38:54. | ||
referee gives it as a free kick took Chelsea. The crowd, when they | :38:55. | :39:01. | |
heard the whistle, the majority thought it was for a penalty. | :39:01. | :39:10. | |
Ivanovic does well. Just moving across Emersons. -- Emerson. It is | :39:10. | :39:20. | |
:39:20. | :39:38. | ||
across, filling in there, David Luiz got caught in the middle. And | :39:38. | :39:41. | |
look at the timing. Just inside the penalty area and it had to be | :39:41. | :39:51. | |

2000, when it was the two grapes. - the first man and a lovely ball | :40:58. | :41:08. | |
:41:08. | :41:09. | ||
invaded Hazzard, who cannot finish. -- into a Hazard. That is the best | :41:09. | :41:16. | |
we have seen from any of the midfield players will start the | :41:16. | :41:26. | |
:41:26. | :41:27. | ||
pass was right. That touch maybe a little too far in front from Hazard. | :41:28. | :41:36. | |
The last touch went back and left Hazard for the goal kick. He has | :41:36. | :41:46. | |
:41:46. | :41:49. | ||
impressed. He has not had the cap seen of Alessandro, the right-back, | :41:49. | :41:56. | |
the lack of pace if you can get at him. Seems to be little more open, | :41:57. | :42:06. | |
:42:07. | :42:11. | ||
a little more pace to the game in Hazard was taken out. Offside this | :42:11. | :42:17. | |
time. Alessandro has done it a couple of times. He did it on David | :42:17. | :42:20. | |
Luiz earlier in the first half and I think he has just done the same | :42:20. | :42:27. | |
thing and the referee saw it. Hazard played the ball. This is the | :42:28. | :42:31. | |
shot from Emerson, which was blocked at the edge of the box and | :42:31. | :42:39. | |
that led to the breakaway. What do you have to do to get a yellow card | :42:39. | :42:46. | |
in this game? I wonder what they will make of it? Sepp Blatter is | :42:46. | :42:56. | |
:42:56. | :43:07. | ||
making friends. Michel Platini several times for Chelsea to good | :43:07. | :43:16. | |
effect. And we have a yellow card. Jorge Henrique. Congratulations. | :43:16. | :43:24. | |
minutes. It is high and clumsy. The referee was in good position, ten | :43:24. | :43:34. | |
:43:34. | :43:50. | ||
are not just a problem for Chelsea. They played 14 games and were | :43:50. | :43:56. | |
unbeaten, drying six and only conceded four goals earlier this | :43:56. | :44:06. | |
:44:06. | :44:28. | ||
year. -- drawing six. It is a couldn't get it down to Fernando | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
Torres and he is ruled to have been climbing. Victor Moses put his | :44:32. | :44:42. | |
:44:42. | :44:44. | ||
hands up their. We thought for a moment it was an opportunity. And | :44:44. | :44:54. | |
you can see there. Good support in the box. Ramires was in there and | :44:54. | :45:04. | |
:45:04. | :45:04. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :45:04. | :45:54. | |
how tight Henrique was at first. The scarves say they were champions | :45:54. | :46:01. | |
of the world in 2000. Tite desperately wants to have that | :46:01. | :46:11. | |
:46:11. | :46:23. | ||
happen again. It is his second mat as he desperately tried to | :46:23. | :46:30. | |
prevent the corner. He could not do that. He has played with that | :46:30. | :46:38. | |
pained expression all match, Guerrero. He has lacked a bit of | :46:38. | :46:48. | |
:46:48. | :46:48. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :46:48. | :47:36. | |
from Ramires again. These are two coach is cut from the same cloth. I | :47:36. | :47:42. | |
do not think they are prone to opening things up enormously. | :47:42. | :47:52. | |
:47:52. | :47:57. | ||
have been some good opportunities. Who is going to blink first? He | :47:57. | :48:06. | |
jumped early. That was quite dangerous. He does not make any | :48:06. | :48:12. | |
attempt to win the ball. As a player you know what you are doing. | :48:12. | :48:22. | |
:48:22. | :48:25. | ||
You are making it look like it is innocent, but... He has had five | :48:25. | :48:30. | |
goals in three games. This time last year he went 24 games without | :48:30. | :48:38. | |
a goal from October to March. has got 11 in total this season. | :48:38. | :48:48. | |
:48:48. | :48:59. | ||
dozen if you include the other one guidelines that if it is going wide, | :48:59. | :49:09. | |
:49:09. | :49:10. | ||
it is not your goal. He very nearly made the Turkish linesman. There | :49:10. | :49:15. | |
are loads of assistants around the pitch. A incredible noise coming | :49:15. | :49:19. | |
from the Corinthian supporters. They are known as the faithful in | :49:19. | :49:29. | |
:49:29. | :49:55. | ||
Brazil. Such numbers that have heel. Ivanovic has to take the | :49:55. | :50:05. | |
:50:05. | :50:09. | ||
first approach. Ivanovic was the wrong side of Paolo Guerrero. There | :50:09. | :50:14. | |
is the fanatical support, they are trying to get behind their team. | :50:14. | :50:24. | |
:50:24. | :50:24. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :50:24. | :51:13. | |
That is good centre-forward play. Ashley Cole got close. That is the | :51:13. | :51:18. | |
closest they have come in the second half. Rafael Benitez is a | :51:18. | :51:23. | |
little bit more rattled. You are looking for that break that changes | :51:23. | :51:33. | |
the course of the game. At this stage now there has to be more | :51:33. | :51:43. | |
:51:43. | :51:43. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :51:43. | :52:37. | |
sensed their team is just starting is given, apart from a Corinthians' | :52:37. | :52:47. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :52:47. | :53:27. | |
it the other. All cultures are in could hear a pocket of Chelsea fans, | :53:27. | :53:34. | |
you could hear the words of their songs. They will be singing tonight, | :53:34. | :53:44. | |
:53:44. | :54:18. | ||
I did not know what he was trying to do. Was he trying to get a | :54:18. | :54:28. | |
:54:28. | :54:30. | ||
corner? It is hard to say. He has been so strange since he left | :54:30. | :54:35. | |
Liverpool. Every time when he scores a few and you think he is | :54:36. | :54:45. | |
:54:46. | :54:46. | ||
back, then he looks fed up again. Nobody wants to see a player | :54:46. | :54:56. | |
:54:56. | :54:57. | ||
struggle. Moses could not create anything with that. That is part. | :54:58. | :55:04. | |
Come inside and go outside and try and get across, whichever way, | :55:04. | :55:10. | |
shows some conviction to try and get past him. We have passed the | :55:10. | :55:20. | |
:55:20. | :55:20. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :55:20. | :56:27. | |
three-quarter mark of the game and Corinthians in front. Feel the | :56:27. | :56:35. | |
noise! This is what those fans have travelled for. It is a goal that | :56:35. | :56:41. | |
might mean the world to the Corinthians. There were three | :56:41. | :56:49. | |
Chelsea players are on the line and no-one seemed to react. There was a | :56:49. | :56:54. | |
moment when I thought the opportunity had gone, but Paolo | :56:54. | :56:59. | |
Guerrero acted the quickest. It was a simple header in the end. You can | :56:59. | :57:05. | |
see what it means to him and the crowd. All the substitutes are | :57:05. | :57:12. | |
joining in. The breakthrough. That is what we have been looking for. | :57:12. | :57:22. | |
:57:22. | :57:33. | ||
You can see all the defence comes over. It is a deflection. It is | :57:33. | :57:37. | |
about the expectation and anticipation. He was moving forward | :57:37. | :57:43. | |
and it was a simple header in the end. Look at the reaction in the | :57:43. | :57:52. | |
stands. Chelsea have to come out and have a go now. Paolo Guerrero | :57:52. | :57:59. | |
scored against Al Ahly on Wednesday and that was a header. Our | :57:59. | :58:05. | |
Corinthians heading for the World Cup title? The No. 9 is doing his | :58:05. | :58:13. | |
best to wind-up David Luiz. It is time for Oscar. They have got the | :58:13. | :58:23. | |
:58:23. | :58:23. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :58:23. | :59:04. | |
getting back behind the ball. They will not want to venture too far | :59:04. | :59:11. | |
forward to protect the lead. He is thinking about it and it is going | :59:11. | :59:17. | |
to be a yellow card. That is his first foul. Everybody else has been | :59:17. | :59:27. | |
:59:27. | :59:30. | ||
given three. That was laid, I think he accepts that. He likes to rolled. | :59:30. | :59:37. | |
It is a foul, there is no question about that, it is a booking. That | :59:37. | :59:44. | |
is it for Moses. Oscar is to come on. A Sao Paulo fan, Corinthians' | :59:44. | :59:54. | |
:59:54. | :00:29. | ||
behind Fernando Torres. To Juan Mata, Oscar and Eden Hazard. What | :00:29. | :00:39. | |
:00:39. | :00:48. | ||
I did not think they would. There are five players in the box. The | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
opportunity to weigh some time. I am sure that is what they will do. | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
-- and waste some time. The fans are delighted. This was the key | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
part. He looks up into the air. Defenders, you go back to protect | :01:06. | :01:15. | |
the goal. Once the goalkeeper leads the line -- leaves the line. | :01:15. | :01:25. | |
:01:25. | :01:27. | ||
can feel it. The last five times, European sides have won. 2006, the | :01:27. | :01:37. | |
:01:37. | :01:46. | ||
can see it is on a pair of the spot. He gets a good look at it. Starts | :01:46. | :01:56. | |
:01:56. | :01:58. | ||
to make his way to the box. A free header. It takes all the power of | :01:58. | :02:08. | |
:02:08. | :02:18. | ||
journey. A few of them are based in the Far East, too. Having scored, | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
he is now keen enough to run around. This is the part I thought they | :02:25. | :02:34. | |
were starting to tire, but the goal gives them a huge lift and boost. | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
Paulinho played such a big part in the goal. Heavily linked with a | :02:38. | :02:48. | |
move to Chelsea. The kick conceded by Fernando Torres. They will not | :02:48. | :02:58. | |
:02:58. | :02:58. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :02:58. | :03:55. | |
be in a hurry, and who can blame top story -- scorer at the Copa | :03:55. | :04:02. | |
America. And the moment, he is taking the Corinthians to the arm | :04:02. | :04:11. | |
of becoming club world champions. Losing out Alessandro. He bundled | :04:11. | :04:18. | |
past. That is why Gary Cahill had to lash the ball out. We are still | :04:18. | :04:25. | |
seeing the right back marauding forward. A exceptional. | :04:25. | :04:33. | |
exceptional. It is hard to do the run forward all the time. He is 33. | :04:33. | :04:43. | |
:04:43. | :04:43. | ||
Amazing fitness. A lot of people have the fitness. You have to be | :04:43. | :04:53. | |
:04:53. | :04:57. | ||
winning. He will be willing to make the runs time and time again. | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
Emerson is still very willing and a little too keen there. Gary Cahill | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
had to check his reactions. He is going for the ball, not the player. | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
It was a good job it was not on Emerson, he would have been rolling | :05:12. | :05:22. | |
:05:22. | :05:53. | ||
off the pitch. What can Chelsea do this could be for this group of | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
players. You look at the players who have turned out in a shirt in | :05:57. | :06:05. | |
the past. Socrates, Carlos Tevez, Roberto Carlos. Ronaldo. Not | :06:05. | :06:15. | |
:06:15. | :06:16. | ||
necessarily at the same time. But that would be a team! Basic passing | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
has gone for Chelsea. Long passing, straight down the middle, which is | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
just not them. You have the to holding midfield players, Frank | :06:27. | :06:34. | |
Lampard and Ramires, and the three creative players behind, and you're | :06:34. | :06:42. | |
asking that once you give the ball to them, do your job. But it is | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
poor from Chelsea. In terms of keeping hold of the ball. Basic | :06:48. | :06:58. | |
:06:58. | :07:28. | ||
long plane ride home for Chelsea, it will seem longer if they do not | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
have the trophy. They hope to set off from Japan after the game. It | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
will have to be in the morning, now. Japanese time. What that will mean | :07:40. | :07:50. | |
:07:50. | :07:57. | ||
is they will not be back at Wednesday night. Nine hours' time | :07:57. | :08:05. | |
difference. They have to manage that. They will be told they have | :08:05. | :08:15. | |
:08:15. | :08:28. | ||
morning. I am getting my time difference mixed up. I know they | :08:28. | :08:38. | |
:08:38. | :08:42. | ||
cannot get the flight they wanted and that has been Chelsea's problem. | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
Can Corinthians keep the lead? There is nothing other moment to | :08:47. | :08:57. | |
:08:57. | :09:11. | ||
suggest they will not. -- at the We do not hold this competition in | :09:11. | :09:18. | |
high esteem in Europe, particularly UK. It will matter to Chelsea and | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
Rafa Benitez. Once they are out here, they apply themselves to win | :09:21. | :09:30. | |
it. You are in the final, representing... A right back is | :09:30. | :09:40. | |
:09:40. | :09:56. | ||
coming on. I imagine he will put the assistant, the job he did in | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
the days of Roberto di Matteo. He always sits behind the bench. That | :10:01. | :10:11. | |
:10:11. | :10:12. | ||
looks like a straight swap. That is a lot of people round. Right back | :10:12. | :10:22. | |
:10:22. | :10:25. | ||
for a right that at 1-0 down and seven minutes to go. The referee is | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
gearing everything now. He gave nothing the first half, and now he | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
is giving everything. There is still time. It needs one moment of | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
magic. There are enough players on the pitch with ability to do it and | :10:38. | :10:46. | |
there are four of them there. who have been stifled by | :10:46. | :10:56. | |
:10:56. | :11:10. | ||
Let's take nothing away, this has been a disciplined and organised, | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
well-drilled performance by Corinthians. A second goal will win | :11:16. | :11:26. | |
:11:26. | :11:40. | ||
Corinthians fans are whistling already. They will keep that going | :11:40. | :11:50. | |
:11:50. | :12:17. | ||
another seven minutes and they will as well. Fernando Torres looks like | :12:17. | :12:24. | |
key things he has been caught. A substitution. That slows it down | :12:24. | :12:34. | |
:12:34. | :12:54. | ||
is a foul. That is a free kick for Corinthians. What we should be | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
talking about is a Fernando Torres equaliser. Azpilicueta caught them | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
by surprise. It looked like he was flicked on. Handshakes all round, | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
get on with the game. The deflection was similar to Gary | :13:13. | :13:20. | |
Cahill's in the first half. It fell to Tom Quelly. He kept it low. -- | :13:20. | :13:28. | |
it fell to Fernando Torres. German is coming on. We have not | :13:28. | :13:35. | |
seen much of him in a Chelsea shirt. I saw him playing against Crystal | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
Palace, and he scored a good goal. The goalscorer is going off, | :13:41. | :13:51. | |
:13:51. | :13:58. | ||
Guerrero. 19 -- Martinez is coming on. Marko Marin was once called the | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
German Lionel Messi. He has not lived up to that potential. He was | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
rated so highly. They need a display of Lionel Messi in the next | :14:08. | :14:16. | |
few minutes. Fernando Torres should have scored, there is no question | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
about it. Every country now has their own Lionel Messi, it is a | :14:22. | :14:29. | |
benchmark. None is as good as the original! The new Pele, the new | :14:29. | :14:39. | |
:14:39. | :15:09. | ||
going into win it. He has every right to. He has had... | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
expression that the world is against him again. The opportunity | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
came to him. It was a chance, onside, back of the net, one touch. | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
It was not convincing, was it? As a player, you try to encourage each | :15:23. | :15:29. | |
other. Encourage your fellow striker to keep going. We will get | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
one more chance. You have to believe that as a team. It does not | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
matter how long they is to go. You think Chelsea will get one more | :15:38. | :15:47. | |
chance. Azpilicueta was down easily, he was bumped down by Danilo. They | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
still might be one more chance than Chelsea. They will do well to get a | :15:52. | :16:02. | |
:16:02. | :16:34. | ||
better one than that was missed by cannot fault that. He thought he | :16:34. | :16:44. | |
was fouled as well. Has something happened off the ball? The red card | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
is out and Gary Cahill is off. Emerson is down and Gary Cahill is | :16:50. | :17:00. | |
:17:00. | :17:00. | ||
dismissed. Having been lenient all game, the Turkish referee has now | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
poured the red card Dowd and his saying please to Gary Cahill and | :17:04. | :17:14. | |
:17:14. | :17:16. | ||
asking him to lead the field. Ashley Cole is asking what happened. | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
I cannot really say, I did not see it. Corinthians are going to make a | :17:22. | :17:30. | |
change. Wallace is coming on. Rafael Benitez is asking him what | :17:30. | :17:40. | |
:17:40. | :17:55. | ||
got to grips within some way. He was going to be replaced a few | :17:55. | :18:05. | |
:18:05. | :18:10. | ||
minutes ago, but Paolo Guerrero went off instead. Wallace is a | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
centre-back. Somebody to come on and make sure they hold what they | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
have. And against the ten men of Chelsea you would think that they | :18:19. | :18:28. | |
:18:29. | :18:29. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :18:29. | :19:20. | |
worth. The whistle has gone! It is not going to count. I think he was | :19:20. | :19:30. | |
:19:30. | :19:31. | ||
offside. That is the first time Cassio does not get it. Sometimes | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
as a striker you know if you are running in a tight line. He cannot | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
believe his luck. His starting position was offside. You cannot | :19:42. | :19:49. | |
argue with it. The assistant has got it spot on. That was a great | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
ball from Oscar. That is exactly what you need when the keeper | :19:54. | :20:04. | |
:20:04. | :20:05. | ||
commits himself. Could you believe it? 85 minutes off not a lot from | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
Fernando Torres. He put it away really well, but you cannot argue, | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
it was offside. What a noise from the Corinthian supporters when they | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
realised it was not going to stand. Does Chelsea have a third chance to | :20:22. | :20:32. | |
:20:32. | :21:11. | ||
has been involved. Ramires has had a really good game for Chelsea. | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
has been everywhere. Arms in the air again and the flag is in the | :21:17. | :21:25. | |
air again. Ashley Cole this time. We are deep inside the 4th minute | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
of additional time. I do not think Frank Lampard is going to get the | :21:29. | :21:36. | |
chance to call himself a world club champions. Look what it means. You | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
could say with a diplomatic hat on it is right that a Brazilian team | :21:40. | :21:47. | |
wins it in a way because it means so much more. But it will not ease | :21:47. | :21:55. | |
the pain for the Chelsea players. The substitutes are frantically | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
waving for a poor time. That might have been creeping in. It is behind | :22:03. | :22:10. | |
for a cornet. I think it is a goal kick. It came off the post and no | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
matter because time is up for Chelsea. The Japanese mission has | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
:22:25. | :22:28. | ||
failed. Corinthians are Crown the fee for a club world champions. The | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
title goes to South America for the first time since 2006. One goal won | :22:34. | :22:42. | |
it. Paolo Guerrero scored it. For the second time at Rafael Benitez | :22:42. | :22:52. | |
:22:52. | :23:04. | ||
is on the wrong end of a 1-0 line. Chelsea are more deserving. -- | :23:04. | :23:11. | |
Corinthians I more deserving. It will be a game of missed | :23:11. | :23:20. | |
opportunities. There will be one almighty celebration throughout Sao | :23:20. | :23:30. | |
:23:30. | :23:31. | ||
Congratulations to Corinthians and disappointment for Chelsea. On the | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
second half performance they were there were the winners. Yes, I do | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
not think you could argue a great deal about that. I think it meant a | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
lot more to them than it did to Chelsea. Chelsea gave it a bit more | :23:47. | :23:54. | |
in the last 10 minutes. I thought Chelsea were a bit disappointing. I | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
felt Corinthians there were all over Chelsea. A real disappointment | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
they did not go for it in the second half, but the chances were | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
there. They had a few opportunities. It is not surprising it is just one | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
goal because it was not a great game. They definitely had that | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
Spaak, when they were 1-0 down, Chelsea. The best chance fell to | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
Fernando Torres who did not have his best game whatsoever. He should | :24:24. | :24:31. | |
have scored. But Moses did not do very much. Eden Hazard was on the | :24:31. | :24:41. | |
:24:41. | :24:47. | ||
fringes. Ramires was poor, his Rafael Benitez will be bemused by | :24:47. | :24:57. | |
:24:57. | :25:01. | ||
what his players were doing on the line. It is the right thing to do | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
to go back on to the line. One of you, but not all three of you at | :25:06. | :25:14. | |
the same time. They had decent positions to get back in there. Be | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
willing to get back and make the effort, but nobody is looking at | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
the player to mark. Ramires thinks about it and realises, I should not | :25:24. | :25:32. | |
be here, I should be out of here. But the momentum is against him. | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
For all three to do the same thing at the same time, that is a mistake. | :25:37. | :25:44. | |
One, maybe two, but definitely not three. But world and Paolo Guerrero. | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
If anyone deserved to score today it was the Peruvian. Add a Bayern | :25:50. | :25:55. | |
Munich player as well. You can tell from the celebrations just what it | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
meant to Corinthians. It has been a while since a South American team | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
has come away victorious from this tournament. Look at the faces of | :26:04. | :26:11. | |
his consolation from some of the Chelsea players. It means a lot to | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
the South Americans, it certainly does. To give a bloody nose to | :26:16. | :26:26. | |
:26:26. | :26:27. | ||
those Europeans! There is no doubt the Chelsea players had | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
opportunities and they had a couple of really good opportunities, and | :26:33. | :26:39. | |
obviously it was Gary Cahill in the first half, but Fernando Torres, if | :26:39. | :26:49. | |
:26:49. | :26:51. | ||
you have got an opportunity, he should score. He should score. He | :26:51. | :26:58. | |
was offside. He is brave and he does the right thing, but you are | :26:58. | :27:06. | |
looking across the line and you should not be offside. Very | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
frustrating today, Fernando Torres. Before up the game I said get in | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
the box and score goals, which is his game. He tried a few flecks | :27:15. | :27:21. | |
that did not work and it makes it look ugly. The three players behind | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
him were supposed to create for him and they did not have a good day | :27:25. | :27:32. | |
today. The one good player was Frank Lampard. Talking from the | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
Chelsea captain, let's hear from him now boast a up it was tough out | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
there this evening. It was always going to be a tough | :27:42. | :27:47. | |
game, they are a very good team. I come away with that feeling that we | :27:47. | :27:52. | |
had enough chances to at least draw the game. There are very hard to | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
break down. Yes, they are very organised, a Brazilian teams in | :27:57. | :28:01. | |
club football can be like that. We knew it was going to be a tough | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
game, but we are disappointed to get all the way here and not to win | :28:05. | :28:11. | |
it. What is it like playing here with this atmosphere? It was a | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
great atmosphere, it is a great stadium and today is what it was | :28:14. | :28:19. | |
all about. Up you can take some things out of this in the training | :28:19. | :28:25. | |
and take it back home? We have to. We have to win a run of games in | :28:25. | :28:28. | |
the league and keep ourselves in the league. We have got the FA Cup | :28:28. | :28:34. | |
and the Carling Cup coming up. I get a word on the Chelsea fans. | :28:34. | :28:39. | |
700 travelled here from around the world to support the team. | :28:39. | :28:44. | |
Absolutely fantastic. They wanted to support the team, they did it in | :28:44. | :28:48. | |
Munich, they follow as everywhere and they are the best fans. Thank | :28:48. | :28:53. | |
you. A great effort from the Chelsea | :28:53. | :28:57. | |
fans who made the trip over to Japan. They were clearly | :28:57. | :29:00. | |
outnumbered by the Corinthians supporters, but they make | :29:00. | :29:04. | |
themselves heard this morning. Let's talk about Gary Cahill's red | :29:04. | :29:12. | |
card. We did not get a replay, so we do not know what he has got sent | :29:12. | :29:19. | |
off for. He won the tackle initially. It must be something off | :29:19. | :29:27. | |
the ball. And then we see Fernando Torres looking. Gary Cahill is | :29:27. | :29:37. | |
:29:37. | :29:42. | ||
nowhere near him. What his left arm. It is off the ball. And he made a | :29:42. | :29:47. | |
meal of it. It is the same referee who sent off for John Terry against | :29:47. | :29:56. | |
Barcelona, but there were no complaints about that. It was a big | :29:56. | :30:00. | |
day for David Luiz facing his boyhood club, no less, in | :30:00. | :30:04. | |
Corinthians. This is him looking particularly distraught after the | :30:04. | :30:14. | |
:30:14. | :30:20. | ||
In the second half, you witness the guy who loses a little bit. If you | :30:20. | :30:27. | |
do that against very good players, you will be found out. He has to | :30:27. | :30:32. | |
keep control and when you lose control you are in for trouble. | :30:32. | :30:39. | |
Chelsea, pretty poor in the second half. Eden Hazard had the best | :30:39. | :30:45. | |
chance. Great pay us, a fantastic through-ball. He burst out of | :30:45. | :30:55. | |
:30:55. | :30:55. | ||
defence. -- it was a great pace. Fernando Torres took the defend | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
their way. Slides it through. Maybe the first touch was heavy. To kick | :30:58. | :31:05. | |
to close to the keeper. The keeper did well for Corinthians. | :31:06. | :31:10. | |
mentioned Alessandro, he did not do much going forward. He stuck to his | :31:10. | :31:16. | |
task. Hazard has been playing well recently but you did not see much | :31:16. | :31:21. | |
today. Chelsea created chances in the first half. Gary Cahill set up | :31:21. | :31:27. | |
the first will start this is not dissimilar to the Fernando Torres | :31:27. | :31:32. | |
one. You are talking six yards and it is straight into the goalkeeper. | :31:32. | :31:37. | |
The difference is that Fernando Torres is worth 50 million quid and | :31:37. | :31:47. | |
:31:47. | :31:50. | ||
he is a centre half. That was a better effort. There | :31:50. | :31:58. | |
were points when you thought they were looking pretty good. Moses did | :31:58. | :32:04. | |
not have his best evening. What a save. Their goalkeeper, all the way | :32:04. | :32:10. | |
through... There were questions about him before the semi-final. He | :32:10. | :32:16. | |
made a mistake. He did well. They do not lose many goals. Four goals | :32:16. | :32:20. | |
in the build up to winning Copa Libertadores. This time they have | :32:20. | :32:26. | |
done the same. They have been hard to beat. We have the in looking at | :32:26. | :32:29. | |
Fernando Torres and there were a lot of eyes on him going into this | :32:29. | :32:34. | |
game. The first two chances he created in the first half thanks to | :32:34. | :32:40. | |
Frank Lampard. Frank Lampard's vision, looking around the corner. | :32:40. | :32:47. | |
It was a great ball in. Could not get a shot away there. The second | :32:47. | :32:51. | |
pass, Frank Lampard again, Fernando Torres playing on the shoulder. | :32:51. | :32:57. | |
Brings it down, a bit unlucky. I felt that Fernando Torres was poor | :32:57. | :33:07. | |
:33:07. | :33:07. | ||
today. In the end, you will purely judge him on goals. If he plays it | :33:07. | :33:12. | |
like you say, make it simple, play with one touch and do the right | :33:12. | :33:17. | |
things, you are not going to score many goals getting the ball deep | :33:17. | :33:25. | |
and running past four players. Did the simple things and get on the | :33:26. | :33:33. | |
end of it. They were flashes of brilliance. They it was almost | :33:33. | :33:41. | |
incredible. -- that was. If he you are a striker and it is not going | :33:41. | :33:46. | |
well for you, he tries to go in the right areas. I think Rafa Benitez | :33:46. | :33:56. | |
:33:56. | :33:57. | ||
would be happy with that. It is old school. There are times he is | :33:57. | :34:03. | |
fighting with the ball, with himself. To give an excuse, | :34:03. | :34:10. | |
sometimes, as the lone striker, you get isolated and it is difficult. | :34:10. | :34:18. | |
It was not difficult for Didier Drogba. He is the best in the | :34:18. | :34:28. | |
:34:28. | :34:33. | ||
business. That was a lucky run. He will be gutted. He will be looking | :34:33. | :34:37. | |
at them and thinking, we should be playing extra-time because I should | :34:37. | :34:46. | |
have scored. I think they do care enough. I do not think they cared | :34:46. | :34:51. | |
enough during the game. In the second half, they looked around and | :34:51. | :34:57. | |
expected it to happen. If you listen to Frank Lampard. For me, he | :34:57. | :35:00. | |
looked like the player in the Chelsea team. It comes back to the | :35:00. | :35:06. | |
reports we have heard, is he leaving Chelsea? Nobody cared more | :35:06. | :35:13. | |
than he did out there for Chelsea. And all their Corinthians our club | :35:13. | :35:20. | |
champions, there are probably ten teams that are better. Should of | :35:20. | :35:30. | |
:35:30. | :35:31. | ||
Sky have started to day? -- should Oscar have started? | :35:31. | :35:36. | |
Ramires, his passing was not good enough. The three attacking | :35:36. | :35:41. | |
midfielders were not having good games, but give them credit. | :35:41. | :35:45. | |
Corinthians defended well. In the end, you have to change and move on | :35:45. | :35:54. | |
a little bit. It didn't happen and that is maybe the reason why. I do | :35:54. | :35:58. | |
not think bringing Oscar on, he is going to grab the game by the | :35:58. | :36:05. | |
scruff of the net. We'll look for a Rolls Royce moments. When it comes | :36:05. | :36:15. | |
:36:15. | :36:20. | ||
to Emerson, we just got Rolls. is getting faster. What is | :36:20. | :36:24. | |
hilarious is David Luiz is used to this. He knows he has made a | :36:24. | :36:29. | |
mistake and dived in. It is obviously not that bad. He turned | :36:29. | :36:32. | |
away and knew he should ignore that because he knows what is going to | :36:32. | :36:36. | |
happen and he has played in a culture before. We complain about | :36:37. | :36:42. | |
the diving we have in the game here, they arm earners. What did Rafa | :36:42. | :36:52. | |
:36:52. | :36:56. | ||
Benitez take away from the tunnel and -- learners. I think he knows | :36:56. | :37:03. | |
what his defence could always do. Fernando, he has learnt it can go | :37:03. | :37:09. | |
up and down very quickly. If he wants to play the two midfielders, | :37:09. | :37:17. | |
his best to, they would be Frank Lampard and David Luiz. Ramires, | :37:17. | :37:27. | |
:37:27. | :37:28. | ||
energy, in abundance. Mikel... I am not too sure. May be for home games, | :37:28. | :37:35. | |
that would be great to see, how many times did Frank Lampard look | :37:35. | :37:43. | |
forward for the long pass? That is what Rafa Benitez it unities. For a | :37:44. | :37:53. | |
:37:54. | :38:02. | ||
more defensive outlook, Mikel. -- Rafa Benitez needs. Chelsea, that | :38:02. | :38:07. | |
does not really suits them. I am interested to know when John Terry | :38:07. | :38:17. | |
:38:17. | :38:17. | ||
comes back, you have another question. You are then probably | :38:17. | :38:27. | |
:38:27. | :38:31. | ||
allowed. Ivanovic can come in bed... -- in. Get John Terry back, and | :38:31. | :38:38. | |
they are not far away. Formalities have started in Yokohama. We can | :38:38. | :38:45. | |
hand you back to Guy Mowbray and Mark Bright. They are present | :38:45. | :38:48. | |
patience to get through. We have had the captain of | :38:48. | :38:54. | |
Monterrey receiving a fair play award for the tournament. They | :38:54. | :39:01. | |
finished in third place having been Al Ahly of Egypt. 2-0. That was | :39:01. | :39:11. | |
:39:11. | :39:13. | ||
earlier today. The Turkish referee, Cuynet Cakir. Still trying to get | :39:13. | :39:18. | |
to the bottom of why he issued a red card to Gary Cahill. And this | :39:18. | :39:21. | |
is the player who scored the goal, not just a day but in the semi- | :39:21. | :39:28. | |
final. Their 1-0 win over Al Ahly. Paolo Guerrero. A Peruvian | :39:28. | :39:35. | |
international. His second goal of the tournament. Look at that. He is | :39:35. | :39:44. | |
a hero to all of the Corinthians supporters. And the powers that | :39:44. | :39:50. | |
become the owners. A handshake from Michel Platini. David Gill of | :39:50. | :40:00. | |
Manchester United and also the Chelsea chairman. The Peruvian | :40:00. | :40:06. | |
striker has played for Bayern Munich and Hamburg. His lake is | :40:06. | :40:16. | |
:40:16. | :40:31. | ||
heavily iced. -- Newcastle- David Luiz steps forward. A word of | :40:31. | :40:36. | |
consolation from Michel Platini. Two-times? I wonder what he is | :40:36. | :40:42. | |
referring to. Two chances to score, perhaps, at the end of the game for | :40:42. | :40:47. | |
Fernando Torres. He does not look particularly pleased to be getting | :40:47. | :40:56. | |
the Silver Ball award. He was in floods of tears at full-time. | :40:56. | :41:00. | |
Everybody in brazil grows up watching this game. It means as | :41:00. | :41:03. | |
much as winning the Copa Libertadores. And the Golden Ball | :41:03. | :41:06. | |
for the best player of the tournament. Certainly the best | :41:07. | :41:12. | |
player tonight. The goalkeeper, Cassio. Mark Bright is with me. We | :41:12. | :41:21. | |
cannot argue with that? Absolutely. Victor Moses, the crucial one, | :41:21. | :41:27. | |
because it was going in, there was no question. Very imposing. Played | :41:27. | :41:34. | |
very well. Played well in the final very well. Played well in the final | :41:34. | :41:41. | |
and that is what you need to do. Apply a who could hardly get a game | :41:41. | :41:50. | |
for PSV Eindhoven. Winning the Copa Libertadores with his team, now he | :41:50. | :41:54. | |
is a world champion. The face of David Luiz tells a story. It is | :41:55. | :42:04. | |
hard, trying to smile through it. A whole of the Chelsea team were | :42:04. | :42:08. | |
feeling the pain, it is not just him as a Brazilian. They gave this | :42:08. | :42:17. | |
a real go. Towards the end of the game... I tell you what, he must | :42:17. | :42:25. | |
have a big car! As Pat Nevin said, write to the end. Corinthians die | :42:25. | :42:31. | |
for them. They made life difficult. There were opportunities -- | :42:31. | :42:40. | |
Corinthians stifled them. They did not do enough. They did not control | :42:40. | :42:50. | |
:42:50. | :42:54. | ||
the game enough. In the end, worthy This is the third-place award. | :42:54. | :43:04. | |
:43:04. | :43:05. | ||
Monterrey of Mexico. 2-0 against Al Ahly. Two goals from a young | :43:05. | :43:10. | |
striker who really did impress. Not just against Chelsea but in their | :43:10. | :43:20. | |
:43:20. | :43:29. | ||
quarter-final, as well. The second Two or three of their players will | :43:29. | :43:39. | |
:43:39. | :43:41. | ||
have caught the eye of potentially big money buyers from Europe. The | :43:41. | :43:51. | |
:43:51. | :44:06. | ||
It is a showcase for many players. Europe is the place to be. | :44:06. | :44:16. | |
:44:16. | :44:19. | ||
Eventually, all of the better players come to Europe. Delgado His | :44:19. | :44:29. | |

at the tail-end of his career. Paulinho. -- he is at the 10 end. | :44:30. | :44:40. | |
:44:40. | :44:54. | ||
The coach of Monterrey receiving his bronze medal. And we will see | :44:54. | :44:59. | |
faces etched with disappointment when the Chelsea players come up to | :44:59. | :45:03. | |
get their medals. Monterrey at least ended their competition on a | :45:03. | :45:12. | |
high this morning. Has the tournament and enough, with Chelsea | :45:12. | :45:16. | |
giving it the crack they did, has it done enough to increase the | :45:16. | :45:26. | |
:45:26. | :45:26. | ||
level of interest? Is it is not historic. Manchester United have | :45:26. | :45:31. | |
won it in the past. Liverpool have been in it quite a few times. It | :45:31. | :45:36. | |
does not hold the same historical value as the Champions League final. | :45:36. | :45:42. | |
And probably the FA Cup final, etc. Maybe these players from South | :45:42. | :45:47. | |
America, they come over, and it means a lot to those players | :45:47. | :45:52. | |
because they are brought up on this championship. Knight Frank Lampard | :45:52. | :45:59. | |
said, once you are there, it is disappointed not to win it -- like | :45:59. | :46:09. | |
:46:09. | :46:21. | ||
Frank Lampard said. The he has won You want to add to that. Rafael | :46:21. | :46:25. | |
Benitez is not instantly able to bring a trophy to Chelsea in his | :46:25. | :46:33. | |
7th game in charge. It was in many ways no win for him. I mentioned it | :46:33. | :46:42. | |
during the game. A lot of people would have said, does it matter? It | :46:42. | :46:51. | |
is a showpiece, an exhibition. We do not have that tears that we had | :46:51. | :46:56. | |
from David Luiz, but he will feel it. Rafael Benitez is doing his | :46:57. | :47:02. | |
best to try and lift the Chelsea players. It will take a while. | :47:02. | :47:07. | |
come back to Leeds away on Wednesday. That will not be easy. | :47:07. | :47:13. | |
No, they have to prove their league form, it is a big task ahead. We | :47:13. | :47:18. | |
know that now. In football you have to put disappointments behind you | :47:18. | :47:25. | |
quickly. The beauty of it is there is another game around the corner. | :47:25. | :47:31. | |
You lose a few games and you win it two or three and you feel so much | :47:31. | :47:40. | |
better. All smiles, Tite, the coach of Corinthians. He has led the club | :47:40. | :47:46. | |
to an astonishing revival. They were relegated at the end of 2007. | :47:46. | :47:50. | |
They were promoted back at the first attempt. This is the richest | :47:50. | :48:00. | |
:48:00. | :48:02. | ||
club in Brazil these days. The Investment Company that supported | :48:02. | :48:06. | |
them, the relationship came to an end, it soured and it took them a | :48:06. | :48:13. | |
year to get back on their feet. Tite came in in the autumn of 2010. | :48:13. | :48:18. | |
They first got a national title last year. It has been onwards and | :48:18. | :48:25. | |
upwards. 18th with an estimated 30 million supporters. 50,000 or so | :48:25. | :48:31. | |
are in Japan. It is fantastic, it is eight bit like a home game for | :48:31. | :48:39. | |
them. Estimates are going up, we are getting towards 1000 Chelsea | :48:40. | :48:46. | |
supporters. I know 100 came up from London. The Japanese supporters | :48:46. | :48:51. | |
will be the disappointed ones. All the grinning and all the delight | :48:51. | :49:00. | |
for the Corinthian players. Chelsea boys now want to get out of | :49:00. | :49:05. | |
the way and get into the changing room, get a shower and get back to | :49:05. | :49:10. | |
the hotel and get home. Nobody wants to watch another team | :49:10. | :49:14. | |
celebrate lifting a trophy that you could have lifted. Only six | :49:14. | :49:19. | |
Brazilian teams to have been declared the best in the world. Sao | :49:19. | :49:26. | |
Paulo have won this before. In the old days it was the | :49:26. | :49:36. | |
:49:36. | :49:43. | ||
Intercontinental Cup. Santos won that. Sao Paulo won that. They can | :49:43. | :49:47. | |
wear that prized badge, much more prized in Brazil than it is | :49:47. | :49:57. | |
:49:57. | :49:59. | ||
anywhere in Europe. There will be a few envious eyes cast by Sao Paulo | :49:59. | :50:08. | |
and sandbars and their rivals. is definitely kudos for them. From | :50:08. | :50:13. | |
the first game I saw Corinthians up their game. They had done their | :50:13. | :50:20. | |
work on Chelsea. They stifled Chelsea. They had lots of energy. | :50:20. | :50:25. | |
They worked hard to close the ball down. They were very well organised, | :50:25. | :50:32. | |
very well drilled. You ride your luck in the file a little bit in | :50:32. | :50:38. | |
any tournament. A couple of opportunities could have gone | :50:38. | :50:43. | |
Chelsea's way, but they did not. Sepp Blatter will hand over the | :50:43. | :50:49. | |
trophy to the captain of Corinthians, Alessandro. The | :50:49. | :50:55. | |
dancing has started. Once that trophy is held aloft, it is | :50:55. | :51:04. | |
confirmed the Corinthians have won the 2012 FIFA World Club Cup. Six | :51:04. | :51:10. | |
long years, that is when the trophy was last in South America and more | :51:10. | :51:20. | |
:51:20. | :51:26. | ||
importantly, Brazilian possession. He is going to shake hands with one | :51:26. | :51:36. | |
:51:36. | :51:37. | ||
and all. It is handed over, the trophy that means Corinthians | :51:37. | :51:47. | |
:51:47. | :51:48. | ||
either champions. The cocktails are on ice. Corinthians are celebrating, | :51:48. | :51:55. | |
champions of the world. We got there eventually, well done | :51:55. | :52:05. | |
:52:05. | :52:06. | ||
to Corinthians. Yes, well done to Corinthians and they are loving it. | :52:06. | :52:14. | |
There was more a product placement and on Sky. Let's not be bitter! | :52:14. | :52:19. | |
Chelsea have got some very big games coming up. They have got | :52:19. | :52:26. | |
Leeds United, back to reality. cannot afford to dwell too long on | :52:26. | :52:33. | |
what has happened. No, they will not. They have got the Carling Cup, | :52:33. | :52:38. | |
the Europa League, the Premier League. Since they have been a way | :52:38. | :52:43. | |
they have gone 13 points behind. That is a big gap to make up. | :52:43. | :52:46. | |
Third-place is the best they can hope for, but they have to get on | :52:46. | :52:52. | |
with a. That is it from us. Chelsea are in action again on Wednesday | :52:52. | :53:02. | |
:53:02. | :53:20. | ||
It should be quite a night at the Excel arena. That is it from us. | :53:20. | :53:25. | |
Disappointment in Japan for Chelsea and what better way to recover than | :53:25. | :53:31. | |
that gentle Cup tie at Leeds. They are begging and borrowing and | :53:31. | :53:37. |
