Eurosport - Sat, 30 May 18:32:00 2009

Everton striker Louis Saha and Ashley Cole of Chelsea entered the record books for different reasons in the FA Cup final at Wembley.

FOOTBALL 2008-2009 FA Cup final Everton's Louis Saha celebrates scoring the opener - 0

Saha scored the fastest ever cup final goal when he drove home with just 25 seconds on the clock to put Everton ahead.

But Chelsea fought back and goals from Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard gave Guus Hiddink's men a deserved 2-1 win.

The victory saw Cole collect his fifth FA Cup winners' medal, and become the first man to win the cup five times since the 19th century.

The England full-back won the cup three times during his time at Arsenal, and has now added two victories as a Chelsea player.
