Sports - Football - Premier League - Liverpool 2:0 Chelsea
Liverpool couldn't have wished for a better start: Fernando Torres pounced on a poor Chelsea side, scoring two, wiping out any thoughts on his recent lack of form and goal-drought and giving his side a two-goal advantage at half time.
10. Both teams start the game feeling each other out, not much in the first 10 min, goalkeepers will be relieved...
10:51 Torres in off Kuyt from left (Skrtel pass), beats Terry, 1-0
20. Zhirkov booked for bringing down Lucas
21. Maxi high & wide shot off Torres cross
35. Liverpool turning a bit sloppy, giving away needless free kicks, but Chelsea draw a pretty poor picture of themselves, not able to capitalise
43:59 Torres twirls & curls one from the left into the right side of the net, after Cole loses the ball in sorry fashion v Kuyt & Meireles, 2-0
