amp;amp;gt;<p><strong>Andriy Shevchenko</strong> and <strong>Didier Drogba</strong> were called a ‘joy to watch’ during <strong>Chelsea</strong>’s 3-0 victory over <strong>Middlesbrough</strong> yesterday at <strong>Stamford Bridge</strong>.</p> <p>Two Drogba strikes and an own goal from Abel Xavier were enough to give Chelsea this victory.<br /> <img alt=”Drogba and Sheva” title=”Drogba and Sheva” xsrc=”http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42558000/jpg/_42558151_drogba203.jpg” mce_src=”http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42558000/jpg/_42558151_drogba203.jpg” /><br /> Drogba opened the scoring when he curled in a low 20-yard free-kick.</p> <p>Xavier poked in Arjen Robben’s driven ball, before Drogba added his second with a free-kick that looped in following an Andrew Davies deflection.</p> <p>Drogba and Shevchenko looked lively, although they did not work as well in tandem as their rival pairing but individually, they were a joy to watch. Ukraine’s star striker created one piece of sublime trickery on the touchline to beat two Boro markers and also struck a shot from 25 yards that flew two yards wide.</p> <p>From BBC Sport</p>
