FLASHPOINT ... Carlos Tevez incurs the wrath
of Didier Drogba
CARLOS TEVEZ has revealed how he loved winding
up Chelsea in the Champions League final. The Manchester United
striker was at the centre of the flare-up which saw Didier Drogba
get sent off for slapping Nemanja Vidic.
Blues skipper John Terry could also be in hot water for
allegedly spitting at the Argentinian. And Tevez feels Chelsea’s
players were still seething at losing out in the title race to
their rivals. He said: “There is bad blood with Chelsea and it was
evident in the game. I like matches like this.
“I don’t get scared when games heat up. It’s quite the
opposite. “All season there was resentment with Chelsea. And we
knew there was going to be more of it because we had won the
Premiership.
“We knew they were going to react at some point because
they wanted revenge. "All we had to do was stay calm. At the end
what was happening was I was encouraging my team-mates to keep up
the pressure. “They took it badly, but my intention was to push us
on to keep on pressurising them.”
