London, England (My Sportsbook) - Frank Lampard felt as though he had been kicked in the teeth after Chelsea lost its Champions League semifinal clash to Barcelona in controversial fashion.

Andres Iniesta scored in stoppage time as the La Liga leaders won through to the final later this month on the away goals rule, but only after Chelsea had several penalty appeals turned down.

Lampard admitted after the Stamford Bridge encounter: "You always know the situation and you know Barcelona have the ability to do something.

"We're disappointed we couldn't take the extra chances but that's football and, in the end, we've been kicked in the teeth.

"When there's at least three clean penalties not given I don't think you expect people just to walk off the pitch and I don't think too many questions should be asked."

Lampard's fellow midfielder, Michael Ballack, was equally frustrated, adding: "It is a big disappointment the way we went out as we played fantastically well, tactically. We had plenty of chances.

"Everyone saw there were a lot of decisions not right.

"There is a point where you can speak about one or two, but there were four or five in the box. At this level - Champions League semifinal - I don't know if you have to accept it."
