A 90th minute goal fr
om PETER CLARKE earned OUR League One boys Southend a shock third-round replay against Chelsea. SALOMAN KALOU opened the scoring on 31 minutes when he rose unchallenged to head in Frank Lampard's corner. Didier Drogba twice failed to find the net when put clean through, instead busying himself picking coins up of the turf. Juliano Belletti also saw a header cleared off the goal-line by Southend hero Johnny Herd.The Blues were made to rue their misses when defender Clarke popped up inside the area to head in a long throw-in. Replay date is Wednesday 14th.
