London, February 9:

Four different players scored for Chelsea to give the Blues a 4-1 victory over Everton on Wednesday and send it to the fifth round of the English FA Cup. In the other match, Middlesbrough defeated Coventry 1-0.

Arjen Robben, Frank Lampard and Hernan Crespo gave Chelsea a first-half lead and John Terry added another goal to complete the victory.

Robben scored from eight yards off a feed from Crespo in the 22nd minute and Lampard converted a penalty in the 36th after teammate Shaun Wright-Phillips was brought down in the area. Crespo made it 3-0 on a header in the 39th, off a perfectly delivered pass from Lampard.

Everton made it 3-1 in the 72nd when Robert Huth was called for a handball, and Mikel Arteta converted. Two minutes later, Terry finished the scoring when Everton failed to clear a ball in the box. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink scored in the 20th, giving Boro its win over Coventry and a place in final 16.

Copa del Rey

MADRID: Diego Milito scored four goals as Zaragoza overwhelmed Real Madrid 6-1 in a Copa del Rey first-leg semifinal on Wednesday. Ewerthon added Zaragoza’s other goals at La Romareda Stadium, leaving Madrid looking almost certain to be eliminated in next week’s second leg at its Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

Julio Baptista netted a consolation goal for the visitors, who had hoped to win Spain’s knockout competition this season and end a drought without a major trophy which stretches back to 2003. Zaragoza’s win ended Madrid’s seven-game winning streak in the league and Copa del Rey. It was Madrid’s first defeat in 2006.

Madrid’s loss was its heaviest since June 1999, when it lost 6-0 to Valencia, also in a Copa del Rey first-leg semi-final. The final is on April 12.
