Liverpool dismantles Chelsea hopes of top four

The match between Liverpool and Chelsea Tuesday night came just three days after the two fought to win the FA Cup title at Wembly - a match which Liverpool so much wanted to win to have their second cup of the year, after the Curling Cup. But the Blues did not help the Reds to realize their dream and clinched the Cup 2-1.

In a tit for tat revenge, Liverpool dismantled Chelsea's hopes to a top-four finish when the humiliated the reds 4-1 Tuesday night.

Those who witnessed the match would have seen a sloppy Chelsea throughout and fell behind when Michael Essien deflected Luis Suarez's cross into his own net.

Despite Chelsea dismal performance, Blues manager Roberto Di Matteo defended his team selection. It was he who had eight changes from the side which beat the Reds in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday and it showed as they were torn apart in the first half. But he had no regrets about the team he picked.
