Guy Read: 'Next season's home derby between Leeds and Bradford, Division One, of course'. Topical
- 80'
Geremi delivers to the back stick, Terry wins the header and nods it back across the face of goal. Somehow no blue shirt gets on the end of it and Sparta clear their lines
- 79'
Bridge gets past Poborsky but is just caught, that's a free-kick on the left flank and another chance to create
- 78'
Again a poor ball from Duff - straight to Blazek. The hunt for quality continues
- 77'
Lampard does well to get into the box - the defenders are in quickly forcing Lampard to rush and the ball's Blazek's again
- 76'
Chelsea are pressing on now, but haven't tested Blazek once in the whole game
- 75'
We now have an email from James Bond. Crickey! "Want bad soccer? Watch anytime Canada play'. A tad harsh.
- 74'
Mutu latches onto Makelele's long ball, he's forced back and then wastes possession
- 73'
Apparently the Panathinaikos game is running this a close second for 'entertainment'
- 72'
Corner to Chelsea again, surely we have to have a decent ball this time. Duff delivers from the left but only finds the clearing head of Krmas
- 71'
We're still looking for your worst ever game: newsdesk@soccernet.com. Mark Austin suggests 'chess'. Inventive.
- 70'
And a double change for Chelsea with Geremi and Eidur Gudjohnsen coming on for Joe Cole and Hernan Crespo respectively
- 69'
A change for Sparta as Ratislav Michalik is replaced with Igor Gluscevic
- 68'
Edmond Stokes writes: 'The 1982 World Cup round-robin match between Germany and Austria has to rank up there as one of the worst ever games. Once each team had scored, neither team put more than two men in the opposing half for the remainder of the match.' Sounds pretty bad
- 67'
Krmas suddenly finds space in the box, but his connection with the shot is terrible and - eventually - Cudicini is able to claim
- 66'
Corner to Chelsea, it's taken short and worked backwards.... why not get it into the box?
- 65'
In fact, the Soccernet in-box is being flooded with emails asking if this game can be worse than the final. It's not that bad, just.
- 64'
The interestingly named 'Girls Love' has nominated the Champions League final between Milan and Juventus as the worst game ever. Yes, that was a bore fest
- 63'

- 61'
Blzaek flaps at the cross from Duff - Crespo can't react and that's a goal-kick
- 60'
Duff plays in Cole and Pergl does well with the saving challenge. Corner
- 59'
Duff and Lampard line it up, it's dinked into the box by the England man and Terry wins the header - but it penalised for a push
- 58'
Zelenka brings down Cole 25 yards out, a chance here
- 57'
This game is the pits. What's the worst game you've ever seen? newsdesk@soccernet.com
- 56'
Kovac is fouled, Poborsky opts to shoot first time but hits a defender
- 55'
The game has not really improved in the second period; it's still very disappointing
- 54'
Bridge trips Poborsky, free-kick to Sparta. Poborsky takes and finds the gloves of Cudicini
- 53'
Labant comes across to block the bursting run of Gallas, and he's lucky not to see yellow
- 52'
Duff is adjudged to have held back Krmas, free-kick
- 51'
It breaks to Makelele who tries a first-time volley - and it drifts just wide of the left-hand post
- 50'
Cole take the free-kick and Chelsea win the corner. Mutu takes from the right but it's poor
- 49'
Duff tries to get past Kovac but is blocked, and that's a free-kick
- 48'
Gallas lumps it aimlessly upfield into the arms of Blazek
- 47'
Mutu suddenly finds himself through to latch on to Cole's pass. He gets to the byline and cuts it back for Duff, who in turn finds Crespo, but the Argentine's cheeky back-flick rolls just wide
- 46'
Sparta kick-off the second half
- 45'
It's been a thoroughly disappointing 45 minutes of football. At the moment Chelsea have the point they need to progress - but surely they want more
- 45'
And that's half-time
- 45'
One minute to be added
- 44'
Mutu is adjudged to have brough down Zelenka, free-kick
- 43'
Terry does well to rob Sionko
- 42'
Pergl sends Duff to the turf, free-kick
- 41'
Krmas tries to win a corner off Bridge, but there's no dice
- 40'
Poborsky capitalises on an error from Bridge, but can't take a return ball from Sionko
- 39'
The game's improving just a little now
- 38'
Sionko's shot on the turn goes way over the bar
- 37'
Cole turns and shoots, Blazek gets down well, low to his right, and collects at the second attempt
- 36'
Duff's delivery from the left is just over the head of Melchiot - the goalscoring hero at Southampton
- 35'
Former West Ham defender Labant gets it full on the face and is flat out - on comes the trainer - although he will be okay
- 34'
Mutu takes it quickly and tries to catch out Blazek, but the referee isn't ready. That gives him a second chance but he only hits the wall
- 33'
Chelsea in a free-kick just over 20 yards out after Cole is sent crashing, a real chance here

- 30'
Cole plays in Crespo who loses out - but it runs for Lampard who can get no real power on his shot and that's a goal-kick
- 29'
Another dinked ball from Duff is nodded behind by Hubschman - again the corner has too much power
- 28'
Chelsea's celebrations are shortlived, however, with the linesman raising his flag against Crespo for offside. He was just too far advanced from Mutu's pass
- 27'
Mutu goes for the follow up as the Sparta defence panics, he nicks it to Crespo who has the simple task of tapping into an empty net
- 26'
Duff plays a teasing ball to the back stick, Crespo leaps but sees his fine header come crashing back off the bar
- 25'
This game is awful, very little quality where is counts
- 24'
Mutu twists and turns again and wins the corner - from which the ball flies over the top of everyone
- 23'
A quarter of the game gone now, and still nothing to trouble either goalkeeper
- 22'
Sionko just moves a fraction early and is offside again
- 21'
Lampard sees his shot from 20 yards out fizz just over the bar. Good lay-off from Cole

Poborsky finds space on the right and plays a lofted ball into the danger area - Gallas is there to head away
- 18'
Sionko is offside from a long punt upfield
- 17'
Duff wins a corner. Mutu delivers from the left, and again it finds a Sparta shirt

Now Krmas brings down Lampard, taken short
- 15'
The cross comes in, but again it's poor and cleared with ease
- 14'
Duff is bundled over by Pergl, free-kick on the left flank
- 13'
Both sides are giving the ball away cheaply, it's very scrappy
- 12'
There's a bit of a subdued atmopshere at the Bridge tonight, very strange with Chelsea on the verge of qualification for the knock-out stages
- 11'
Lamprd feeds in Crespo down the right, but again the deliver into the box is sub-standard
- 10'

- 4'
It's a good start from Chelsea
- 3'

- 2'
Duff shows a bit of tricky before losing his footing
- 1'

Marcel Desailly has failed to win his place back despite the captain declaring himself fit following an 11-match absence with a hip injury.
Claudio Ranieri keeps faith with the pairing of John Terry and William Gallas who have helped the team keep four consecutive clean sheets. Claude Makelele has recovered from a neck injury, while Hernan Crespo and Adrian Mutu were reunited in attack.
