Robson roasts 'unprofessional' Jenas as Chelsea lift Asia Cup

Newcastle 0, Chelsea 0 (Chelsea won 5-4 on pens)

With Chelsea leading the shoot-out 5-4, Jenas had to score to keep Newcastle's hopes alive after the rip-roaring final had somehow ended 0-0.

Straight into penalties, Chelsea went two up as Alan Shearer and then Laurent Robert missed, but Newcastle fought back to level at 3-3 and take the dramatic shoot-out into sudden death.

Then Jenas stepped into the spotlight and floated his effort over goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini and over the crossbar.

"It was an outrageous way to try and take a penalty," said Robson. "He's young and for some reason he has gone against all his education and all his practice to try and do something different and he has come unstuck from that.

Robson had initially tried to divert attention away from Jenas, his experiences in shoot-outs having taught him that even the finest players can freeze.

For Chelsea the trophy marked the first piece of silverware since owner Roman Abramovich began to splash the cash.

While Hasselbaink, Eidur Gudjohnsen, Boudewijn Zenden and Jesper Gronkjaer all threatened for Chelsea, it was a day for the defences and Ranieri credited his backline for the victory.

"I am not surprised about John Terry or the other two young players, I am surprised about Robert Huth, he was fantastic," said Ranieri.

"I am very happy. It's my first trophy. I am very pleased with our performance. We deserve the trophy."

Gronkjaer was adjudged man of the match after winning an enthralling duel down his right wing with Olivier Bernard, but Given in the Newcastle goal turned in a sterling performance.

He dashed off his line to three times clear with his head and brought Newcastle back into the shoot-out with saves from Damien Duff and Hasselbaink.

Lampard had coolly put Chelsea ahead before Shearer struck the crossbar and Robert's effort was saved by Cudicini.

In between, Given dived to his right to keep out Duff's effort, so when bandaged defender Huth blasted his into the roof of the net, Chelsea led 2-0.

Dyer converted his effort, but so did ice-cool Gudjohnsen before Bowyer, booed as he strode into the area, placed his shot into Cudicini's left-hand corner.

At 3-2, Hasselbaink had the chance to win it but Given guessed right and though the ball spilled out of his grasp, it hit the post and rolled out.

Bellamy, Joe Keenan, Jonathan Woodgate and Terry all then converted before Jenas' chip sailed over.

NEWCASTLE: Given, Hughes, O'Brien, Woodgate, Bernard, Solano, Speed, Jenas, Viana, Cort, Ameobi.

CHELSEA: Cudicini, Johnson, Terry, Huth, Bridge, Gronkjaer, Lampard, Nicolas, Zenden, Hasselbaink, Gudjohnsen.
