Didier Drogba maintained his superb record at Wembley as he made it six goals from his last six appearances to help Chelsea win the Double with a 1-0 win over Portsmouth.

Drogba seems to enjoy playing at the national stadium and stole the headlines once again as his crucial strike ensured Chelsea retained The FA Cup.

The Ivory Coast international took his tally to 37 goals for the season and says it was an extra special day for the club after they lifted the Premier League title last weekend.

Drogba said: “It’s fantastic to achieve the double. It was difficult to come back and stay focused for the game because last week was so great. We’ve been celebrating the title and it was difficult today against a very good Portsmouth team.

“We were unlucky in the first half. You start to think that you’re not going to score. The manager said at half time we would keep creating chances like this. We had to believe, stay concentrated and do the job.

“I saw a little gap in the wall. I hit the post again but it went in this time!”
