Eliminated!

But Andres Iniesta late equaliser from the first Barca shot on goal in the match sent Chelsea out on away goal.

Hiddink's side were the better squad in the second leg at Stamford Bridge with Essien's stunning goal on 9 minutes, Drogba's three clear chances and four Chelsea penalty appeals that the Norwegian referee Ovrebo did not want to hear.

Nevertheless, Barcelona was the one to progress after the aggregate 1-1.

"It is a great disappointment for all of us, the whole season work was for nothing" said PETR CECH."It is a great disappointment for all of us," said PETR CECH.

"We were the better side, we should have progressed but because of several clear chances we had wasted, because of brilliant Iniesta's goal and, of course, because of absolutely unbelievable decisions of the Norwegian referee we have been eliminated," claimed the Czech goalie.
