    33'
    Hazard jinks left, and is tripped by Kasami, earning Chelsea a free kick to the left of the D, twenty five yards out. This is an excellent chance.
    32'
    Ivanonvic is fouled his right back position, in Chelsea's half. This hasn't been a stimulating game so far. It's odd what Mourinho can do to a team sometimes. His first Chelsea team - in the first season at least - was thrilling at times.
    30'
    Ramires lays the ball off to Ivanovic for the cross, the ball is pushed away to Cole, and then to Schurrle, and Fulham are able to break up the attack enough to force the ball back to the Chelsea defence.
    29'
    Fulham with a rare foray into the Chelsea half, and Sidwell injudiciously lets fly from miles back, sending the ball miles ooto the pitch.
    28'
    Chelsea attack with Ivanovic, but Chelsea give away another free kick in the same place with the Serb clipping a Fulham player's heel. Martin Jol stands up, shouts, and presumably then sits down.
    27'
    The corner is too late, and Parker is fouled as the ball is about to drift out of play. Fulham have a free kick just to the left of their penalty area, and Stockdale hoofs it clear.
    26'
    Chelsea lose the ball after a loose pass from Ramires, but quickly win it back. Eto'o picks the ball up on the left wing, cuts into the box, scoots past Riether, but his shot is deflected wide.
    24'
    Fulham and Chelsea swap the ball in midfield, and Kačaniklic gets a rare sight of the ball on the left.
    23'
    Fulham remain under pressure from Chelsea, and Cole tackles Parker, earning a Chelsea Corner from the left. Schurrle takes, and Stockdale flaps at the back post. Fulham manage to clear for a throw. It feels like a goal is coming.
    22'
    A long ball to Schurrle is cleared up by Amorebieta. Chelsea remain in Fulham's half, but Fulham are solid in defence.
    21'
    Chelsea have had 57% of the possession, and what that tells us is something statistical.
    20'
    Ramires heads the ball on at the edge of the box, but Stockdale gathers easily.
    20'
    Sidwell concedes a free kick with a late challenge on Ramires, and Chelsea have the ball fifty yards from the ball on the right.
    19'
    John Terry and his defence keep the ball, until a long ball is headed out by Riether.
    17'
    Oscar's accurate clip to Schurrle down the left gives him space to cross on the right, but it's deflected out for a corner. Schurrle takes, but Terry heads over and wide.
    16'
    Ramires hobbles off for some more treatment. He injured himself challenging for the ball that led to the Hazard penalty appeal.
    15'
    Ramires is down injured and receiving treatment. You can be sure that Mata wouldn't even have blinked when under this amount of suffering.
    14'
    Chelsea appeal for a penalty. The ball is high in the box, and Riether bundles Hazard to the ground as it falls towards the Belgian. Juan Mata would have won that penalty.
    13'

    Bent is through on goal, he's got time, no defenders near enough to trouble him, this is it! And he passes it right at Cech's legs! What a chance to waste. Juan Mata would have scored.
    13'
    Fulham have been content to defend in their half. Cole's cross to Eto'o is intercepted, and now Fulham attack.
    12'
    Schurrle's cross is blocked, but the ball is back to Ivanovic, whose fierce cross is just clipped by the German. This is exciting stuff, if you like Mourinhoball.
