No contest as Chelsea cut down Forest in FA Cup
LONDON, Jan 28 (Reuters) Chelsea swept into the FA Cup fifth round with a hopelessly one-sided 3-0 win over third division Nottingham Forest today.
Ukraine striker Andriy Shevchenko gave the Premier League champions a ninth minute lead with a deflected shot and further goals from Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba and Nigerian midfielder John Obi Mikel killed the tie before halftime.
West Bromwich Albion are also through to Monday's fifth round draw after a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in a second division Midlands derby at Molineux.
Fourth round action was continuing on Sunday with Manchester City taking on second division Southampton and Arsenal at home to Bolton Wanderers.
