Moyes: Goal inspired Blues
Everton manager David Moyes believes Louis Saha`s early goal in the FA Cup final helped inspire opponents Chelsea in the FA Cup Final.
Saha fired home after just 25 seconds - the fastest goal in FA Cup final history - but Didier Drogba levelled for the Blues, and Frank Lampard fired home the winner in the second half.
Moyes said: "It was a great start for us but it seemed to inspire Chelsea. We found ourselves chasing the ball in that first half. But we deserved to be in the final. The players performed ever so well through the season but Chelsea just had a bit too much for us. They were the better team."
Moyes, however, insisted it was vital that Everton had made it as difficult as possible for Guus Hiddink to win a trophy after just three and a half months in the Chelsea job.
He added: "It was important for the Premier League. You have to work very hard in the Premier League for everything.
"This is a strong country of football and I wanted to try to beat Guus Hiddink and I congratulate him because he is a good manager but I wanted it to be much harder for him to come into this country and win a trophy. But I'm very proud of the players. They weren't out of place. The game was very tight."
