Edwin van der Sar has hit out at Chelsea for its defensive approach in the first leg of their
Champions League semifinal against Barcelona. The Premier League representatives recorded a 1-0
victory over the Catalans at Stamford Bridge, and
Van der Sar has stated that Barca should beat
Chelsea in the return 'for the sake of football'. "For the sake of the game and for football in
general, I hope Barcelona win at Camp Nou," Van
der Sar was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail. "I love teams who attack. Chelsea did nothing but
defend with nine players and kept lots of players in
the middle of the park. "But this tie could have been
over by now. I expected Chelsea to lose by a big
figure. And it could still have been 5-1 to Barca in
the end. Chelsea had just one shot at goal – and they scored.www.goal.com/en-ca/news/4199/uefa-champions-league/2012/04/22/3054414/van-der-sar-for-the-sake-of-football-barcelona-must-defeat
