Liam Delap's goalscoring woes continued as the Chelsea striker celebrated early against Hull City in the FA Cup - only to discover he hadn't scored. Delap put his hand up to claim the goal - thinking he had put his team 1-0 up - but the ball ricocheted out and he ambled over to it. With an empty net, the striker still protested at referee Farai Hallam. Delap only realised he'd have to shoot again when it was too late - Phillips was back in position. Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior cut a frustrated figure on the touchline and BBC co-commentator Alan Shearer could scarcely believe what he had seen.
