Chelsea Gets The Barnsley Shocker

So booting harpless Liverpool out of the English FA Cup was not enough for Barnsley, they have done the exact same thing to Chelsea. You know, i knew an upset might be on the cards in that match, but i thought that a team like Chelsea that scores a lot of goals could pull this one off, i was wrong.
I could not believe it when i saw the clock reading only 5 minutes to the end of the game, with the Tykes a goal up. It was quite heartwarming to see a team like Barnsley, who have won the FA Cup on only 1 occasion in their entire history win yet another match, against yet another big premiership giant was quite encouraging. The last time Barnsley reached the semi-finals was in 1912 - they went on to win their one and only FA Cup that season.And if they show the sort of desire that has seen them overcome Premier League giants Liverpool and, now, Chelsea then few would bet against them picking up their second title.
Worthy of note is Portsmouth who advance after beating Man Utd 1-0 at Old Trafford, the goal was scored by Ghananian striker Sulley Muntari from the spot after Milan Baros was brought down by substitute United Keeper Tomasz Kuszczak who was promptly shown the red card.
Rio Ferdinand stepped in as make up keeper but was cleanly beaten by Muntari, what a shame.
