[Tweets] Drogba & Cech Among Players To React On Twitter To Chelsea Victory

Chelsea edged past Shrewsbury Town 2-1 on Tuesday night to book their place in the quarter finals of the Capital One Cup.

Didier Drogba opened the scoring for the visitors with a fine finish just after half time before substitute Andy Mangan poked home the equaliser for Shrewsbury with 15 minutes remaining.

However, the Premier League leaders forced a winner just 5 minutes later when Jermaine Grandison put Willian’s cross through his own net under pressure from Drogba to book Chelsea’s place in the quarter finals of the League Cup.

After the game, Drogba took to Twitter to praise Shrewsbury and to say that Chelsea showed great spirit to beat the League Two outfit. Nathan Ake also admitted the Blues had faced a tough game while he and Petr Cech both thanked the travelling Chelsea fans for their support.

Here is what the boys had to say:

Difficult conditions, great opposition team but we still showed great spirit to qualify for the next… http://t.co/0PYK6iZl3r
