. : ref's a f**king disgrace : .

DIDIER DROGBA was furious after the Champions League semi-final defeat against Barcelona tonight and labelled referee Tom Henning Ovrebo a “disgrace”.

An animated Drogba needed restraining by stewards and his manager Guus Hiddink at the end of the game.

The Ivory Coast hitman felt he should have had a penalty and his side also had two appeals turned down for handball, with the Spanish giants then grabbing a stoppage-time strike to go through on away goals.

The striker, who was unhappy after being subbed in 72nd minute, remonstrated with the referee after the game.

He then turned to the television camera, shouting that the official was a “f****** disgrace”.

Chelsea fans also threw flags at the officials and the Barcelona bench at the end of the match.
