Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard was
delighted with their "sweet" Community Shield success over
Manchester United.
After the game Lampard admitted it was a "sweet moment" to claim
the Community Shield at the expense of the defending
Premier League champions.
"This is sweet. It feels nice to make a winning start to the
season," Lampard told Sky Sports 2.
"After that last goal we could have been on a downer but we
didn't let out heads drop."
The United players were furious that Lampard's goal in normal
time was allowed to stand but the England midfielder believes it
was within the rules of the game.
"Anyone should look at the rules," he said. "It's up to the
referee to stop it but Man United just stopped when their man was
down.
"It's in the rules, when the referee stops it he stops it. We
carried on and I'm sure United would have down the same in that
position."
Lol kinda no sportsmanship, when see another player on the
ground whether from ur team or not shld at least kick the ball
out...
