Flying High
What I mean is that Woolwich had the first quarter, Chelsea had the next two quarters and Woolwich had the last quarter and in all those quarters - goals were scored!!
Woolwich took the lead as Randall skipped through the Chelsea defence before chipping over a sprawling Rhys Taylor.
Chelsea equalised when Tejera slotted in at the far post from a Drogba cross after Didier showed his strength on Chelsea's left and leaving Woolwich youngster Agogo trailing in his wake.

In the third quarter, Chelsea took the lead as Paim (sub for Didier) showed his tricks before supplying a 40 yard cross-field pass to Stoch out on Chelsea's right, Stoch crossed low and Woods with virtually his first touch of the game drilled the ball home.

Chelsea went 3-1 up when van Aanholt stole possession from Woolwich and charged into the Reds area, the ball broke loose and Scott Sinclair was on hand to fire the ball high and right into Woolwich's net.

Chelsea had a chance to go 4-1 up, when Stoch fired a free-kick shot against the post.
This miss seem to re-galvanise Woolwich who controlled the last quarter of the game and their 2nd goal came from a Fonte free-kick after Magnay committed a foul right on the edge of Chelsea's area.
For his trouble, Magnay was booked.
Chelsea had to resist a final Woolwich surge and Welsh international 'keeper Rhys Taylor was very very busy in the last ten minutes as he helped to keep Whinger's babes at bay.
Didier lasted 60 minutes, Paim replaced him and it was a welcome boost to see the big man back and Paim looked like a good piece of business as he worked hard in attack made Chelsea's 2nd goal and worked hard in completing his defensive duties too.
