Chelsea and Olympiacos head to boring draw

Chelsea managed to hold Olympiacos to a boring draw to keep their chances of reaching the next round in the Champions League.

Olympiacos really outplayed Chelsea that evening, and they didn't even allow the Blues to create a proper chance of scoring!!
Even Avram Grant admitted that his world class side had been outplayed by the Greeks that evening, which proves that there are other superpowers emerging in Europe.

One of the few reasons for Chelsea not performing that evening was that Avram Grant took a gamble and left out Lampard and Terry, which could have proved costly, but it didn't.

Chelsea had more shots, but hardly any of them were on the goal. They also had most of the possession, but plenty of fouls and yellow cards.
There's nothing to really say about this match, as it was boring and uninteresting.. and thus the result.

Here are the highlights(a whole 15 minutes!!!)
