FA Cup: Chelsea 2-0 Liverpool

A defeat in the premier league and now another one in the FA cup for Liverpool at the hands of Chelsea who have advanced into the quarter-finals of the event as Liverpool suffered a 2-nil defeat in a highly competitive encounter at Stamford Bridge.

Liverpool made seven changes to the side that lost surprisingly at Watford on Saturday, but it was all in vain, as Merseyside Reds keeper Adrian gifted Willian, Chelsea's opener after 13 minutes, when he hopelessly fumbled Willian's 20-yard shot.

The match was effectively settled after 64 minutes, when Ross Barkley surged from inside his own half on a solo run, and finished it with an unstoppable shot from the edge of the box.

Chelsea now have Wembley in his sights in the summit, while Liverpool return to the task of wrapping up the Premier League title, and overcoming a 1-nil deficit from the Champions League last-16 first leg against Atletico Madrid.
