Zola tribute match

Who else went to the Zola tribute match in 2004 against Real Zaragoza? 3-0 Chelsea, Mourinho's first Chelsea match at the bridge and most importantly of all, a chance to see the legend of Zola in the famous royal blue for one last time! Wonderful day! What are your memories of it?!

I didn't go... but I have the match on DVD. I remember it being 4-0, though, and I think Duff and Drogba scored two of the goals. David Villa played for Zaragoza that day.

I was on Holiday when this was being played, seems like ages ago now.

I went to the game too, had a great day out. Since then I've had Franco sign my programme and dvd of the game so I might frame it all one day with my Zola 25 shirt and the ticket stub lol. I also remember it well because it was Jose's first game in charge

Speaking of which, im currently editing some highlights of the game, will add them to the video section when they're done or they will be here

I was there! Got a seat about three rows back in the West Stand Lower (south side, near the corner flag), because I wanted to be as close to the pitch as possible. Great for Zola's lap of honour, though I think most (if not all) of the goals happened down the MH end, so not such a great view in that regard...

I remember pulling out one of my old 'Autoglass' shirts with ZOLA 25 on the back for the match, then being surprised that I didn't see more fans doing something similar...
