in a battle, there's only so much that strategy and tactics can help. it still boils down to the soldiers fighting the battle on the ground. tonight, two master tacticians went head to head; ancelloti vs wenger. both very well respected and experienced football managers. in such a tight combat, it's either mistakes made or moments of brilliance that leads you to victory or defeat. the men in red in contrast to their blue counterparts, were smaller in their physique and was obvious in one-on-one situations. the chelsea soldiers easily outmuscled arsene wenger's men. although the nimbled and quick feet arsenal players were passing the ball around the penalty box fairly well, it proved futile as one-man-show didier drogba showed them that all you need is strength, power and accuracy, banging in two goals in the first half. simplicity and straightforwardness wins tonight against entertaining and beautiful football.
well although the london battle is won, the premiership war is not over.
