It was a game that proved how close the top two teams in England are, but ultimately it was decided by a moment of brilliance from Chelsea's top scorer Didier Drogba.

After a 116 minute long war of attrition, the Ivorian conjured up a goal worthy of winning any Final, and now you can watch the highlights online by clicking the links above.

Receiving Jon Obi Mikel's pass, Drogba clipped the ball to Frank Lampard before spinning into the box. The England midfielder delivered the perfect volleyed return to Drogba who nipped ahead of Edwin Van Der Sar before poking home.

Chelsea's fans celebrated, knowing Manchester United would not have enough time to force a response. Their roar when Steve Bennett blew the whistle moments later reverberated around the fabulous new arena.
