Chelsea - Barcelona 1:1 Essien's Goal
Guus Hiddink felt Chelsea were on the wrong end of a UEFA Champions League 'injustice' against Barcelona.
The Blues bowed out of Europe's premier club competition after a dramatic 1-1 at Stamford Bridge.
Michael Essien's opener appeared to have settled the contest as the game ticked into injury time, but Andres Iniesta snatched a late leveller to book the Catalan giants a final date with Manchester United.
The Chelsea players were outraged at the final whistle as they felt they were denied a number of blatant penalty decisions by referee Tom Henning Ovrebo.
Their manager was equally as disappointed by the performance of the Norwegian officials and felt his side were harshly treated over the course of the 90 minutes.
"I'm very disappointed, it is not easy to analyse the game when adrenalin is still pumping," the Dutchman told Sky Sports.
"We are so disappointed because we have a few issues. Firstly we could, and should, have scored in some open situations and then because we must talk about the not given penalties.
"There were three of four situations that were so clear. I will not say what we really feel, but it is an injustice. We should have scored, though, and had the game already done."

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique is relishing the prospect of a Champions League final against his former club after playing his part in dramatically knocking out Chelsea. Andres Iniesta's last-gasp equaliser sent Barcelona through on away goals and set up a clash in Rome against Manchester United, where Pique was until last summer before he moved to Camp Nou. "It means a lot," Pique said. "It will be special because I had three good years there, maybe I didn't play a lot but they were important years for me." Chelsea were furious with referee Tom Henning Ovrebo after he turned down four penalty appeals, including a handball from Pique. "To be fair, it touched my hands but it was not deliberate," Pique added. "The referee can decide what he wants and you have to respect the decisions. Sometimes they are wrong. I'm just happy that I'm through to the final."
