Official highlights of Chelsea's memorable 2003/2004 season. The game marked Chelsea's final home match of the season, therefore the trophy presentation and post-match celebrations were held afterwards in front of a capacity home crowd.Three days later, Chelsea travelled to Old Trafford for the penultimate game of the season against third-placed Manchester United, receiving another pre-match guard of honour (customary for their remaining games since clinching the title against Bolton); and in spite of Ruud van Nistelrooy's opening goal, the Blues hit back, notching three times through Tiago, Gudjohnsen and Joe Cole late on to complete a Premier League double over United and claim a record 29th victory of the league season, moving onto 94 points.Their final league game on 15 May 2005 ended in a 1-1 draw, away to Newcastle United in an inconsequential yet unusually ill-disciplined end-of-season fixture that saw eight yellow cards brandished; the club's top-scorer Frank Lampard scoring from the penalty spot to equalise an own goal by Geremi at the other end minutes earlier.Chelsea completed their historic campaign with notably new Premier League records of 95 points (12 clear of second-placed Arsenal), 29 wins (14 of them at home - a record in itself), 1,025 consecutive minutes without conceding and just 15 goals conceded - suffering only one defeat all season.2004–05 UEFA Champions League group stage § Group H,2004–05 UEFA Champions League knockout stage,https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2004–05_Chelsea_F.C._season&oldid=977434139,English football championship-winning seasons,Short description with empty Wikidata description,Pages using football kit with incorrect pattern parameters,Articles with unsourced statements from September 2020,Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License,This page was last edited on 8 September 2020, at 20:35. 25:33. from 2003-2004. A week later on 9 April, Dider Drogba rescued a point for the West Londoners after Walter Pandiani had given Birmingham City a shock lead with half an hour to go at Stamford Bridge; however, their form and results elsewhere conspired to leave Chelsea needing just six points from their last six fixtures of the campaign to be assured of their first-ever Premier League title.On 20 April, Chelsea played out a goalless draw at home against nearest rivals Arsenal with both sides (particularly the hosts) missing a myriad of opportunities to break the deadlock.
