CHELSEA RESERVES 0 TOTTENHAM RESERVES 0
Tue, 20th Mar 2007
A third consecutive 0-0 draw in a row in a London derby was a low-key
appetiser to the big FA Cup clash at White Hart Lane.
The first team's replay against the same opposition had led to this
reserve team encounter at Aldershot being moved to an unusual afternoon
kick-off, and it took some time for this game to hit any sort of stride.
The second-half would provide more penalty area action but in difficult
weather conditions and on an equally difficult bumpy pitch, the opening 45
minutes were devoid of any clear cut openings for either side.
The Chelsea cutting edge was blunted by the absence of Ben Sahar,
travelling to join up with the Israel national team ahead of their weekend
match against England.
Lee Sawyer, recently introduced to this level by coach Brendan Rodgers,
was asked to play more forward while Phil Younghusband, the team's senior
attack-minded player was back in the side after a spell away on
international duty with the Philippines.
After an untidy start to the game, there was a hint of an opening for
Tottenham after 16 minutes when Phil Ifil's hammered cross more bounced
off Andy Barcham than the striker headed it. It flew well over.
As Spurs continued to hold the upper hand as a scrappy half continued, Sam
Hutchinson was in the right place at the right moment to block an
on-target shot from Kieran McKenna.
Three minutes before the interval, the Chelsea side at last managed to
force their way into the Spurs area.
Attacking midfielder Sergio Tejera was the weapon, battling past an Ifil
tackle and then skilfully knocking the ball over another opponent - but
his shot was ballooned well over.
Hopes were for something out of the ordinary to brighten up the game after
the restart but no-one expected it to come from above. Five minutes in,
the mother of all hailstorms sent down stones the size of marbles.
The referee sensibly spared the players pain by calling them off for a
minute or so while the precipitation subsided.
A game that had started with a light snow flurry then took another twist
in weather as thunder was heard overhead and the wind became more
blustery.
On 53 minutes, Shaun Cummings won a free-kick with a positive run down the
middle. Younghusband curled a 25 yard effort wide with the keeper covering.
Spurs defender Jake Livermore then needed to clear behind hurriedly as
Younghusband played a dangerous ball in. Chelsea were enjoying their best
spell of the game.
As the hour mark approached, another good Hutchinson block halted an
O'Hara shot that threatened to test Chelsea keeper Yves Ma Kalambay.
On 69 minutes it took Ma Kalambay to be alert and alive to snuff out
significant danger. Sprinting out and using his long reach to tip the ball
away from Hallfredsson after Spurs had worked it quickly across the area,
it was a quality piece of goalkeeping.
In contrast, there was a touch of luck a few minutes later when the same
player badly miscued his kick up field. To his immense relief, the ball
spun behind but bounced wide of the goal.
Danish Under 17 international Morten Nielsen was introduced 12 minutes
from the end to make it a second reserve team debut of the afternoon. Carl
Magnay, the winner of Football Icon 2, was the other, starting at
centre-back. He was steady, if quiet, helped by his place alongside the
solid Hutchinson.
There as further good work from Ma Kalambay with six minutes to go when he
blocked substitute Lee Barnard's point blank range effort and within a
minute, Younghusband had the Spurs keeper scrambling across goal with a
low shot that flew just wide.
After a turgid beginning and middle to this game, it was a fairly lively
ending. Barcham could have won it for Spurs as he reached a long punt up
the pitch first but completely missed his kick with Ma Kalambay committed.
In the final minute of added time there was a harsh booking for
Tottenham's Charlie Lee for a foul on Nielsen.

當我漫遊在斯坦弗森林時，我看見了雀爾西，米爾斯的女兒，在傍晚初升的明月中，
在泰晤士河旁一處林地空間上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的記憶都離開了我，我像落入迷離
幻境中一般，因為雀爾西是伊露維塔兒女中最美的一位。她身上那襲藍色的衣裳宛如
萬里無雲的晴空，她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星閃爍的天空；她的斗篷上繡著金色的花
朵，她的頭髮漆黑如暮色中的陰影。她的榮光與美好，就像樹葉上的光芒，像是潺潺
流水，像是這迷離世界上方閃爍的繁星；她臉上有閃亮的光輝。
