Didier Drogba reveals his delight at helping Chelsea lift the FA Cup at the expense of Liverpool.

Didier Drogba has expressed his delight following Chelsea's 2-1 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup final this evening.

The Ivory Coast international was among the goals as the Blues claimed the trophy for the seventh time in the club's history.

Asked by ITV Sport how much of a test Liverpool provided his side, Drogba replied: "This one and the first final against United were the hardest.

"Liverpool is a difficult team to play and we got a great result because after losing against Newcastle it was difficult for us losing at home but I'm glad we won. It's the first step."

Drogba's goal saw him set a record as the only player to have scored in four FA Cup finals.
