Chelsea couldn’t handle the "tigers"

The first half-hour of the match passed with the full advantage of the "tigers". The hosts played with far more desire than the guests, who found sometimes difficult crossing the center line. By 30th minute "Hull" was 5:0 ahead of "Chelsea" by corner kicks, and it was he fifth corner that led to goal. Stephen Hunt sent the ball in the box and Mouyokolo, who was left unattended by Chelsea defenders, put it behind Petr Cech.

After a missed ball guests woke up, and the remaining 15 minutes passed on higher speeds. On 42 minute they got their first chance, and immediately took advantage of it. A foul on Nicolas Anelka near the penalty area, and the foul kick is appointed. Didier Drogba, who had just returned from the African Cup, precisely sent the ball in the net.

After the break, Chelsea played a little faster, but the dedication of Hull City players did not allow them not only to score, but also to create at least one more or less dangerous moment.

Chelsea continues to lead in the standings, two points ahead of Manchester United. "Hull" after this game climbed from 19th to 18th place.
