Chelsea fans ‘loudly booed’ by Newcastle fans at FA Cup final

Chelsea fans have been booed off the pitch at a Newcastle derby in which Chelsea are favourites to win the FA Cup.

The Newcastle crowd booed them off and were later reported to have broken the club’s own rules, with one player being told to “go home”.

The Blues had earlier taken the lead in the first half but Chelsea won the second with goals from Petr Cech and Didier Drogba.

The club have now lost two straight cup finals with a draw in 2013 and a 1-0 defeat in 2014.

The FA Cup is a single-elimination competition which runs until April 6.
