Notes
The name Leon Lenik may not be familiar to you, so here is an explanation of who he is and how he came to play.
At the tie he was the catering manager at Stamford Bridge. When asked if he could do a deal on food for the night, Leon quipped yes, as long as he could get a game. The answer from the organiser was, 'Yes, no problem,' said in a way that left the other party thinking this might not be a joke anymore.
On the night he replaced Alan Hudson for the whole of the second half.
