DANIEL STURRIDGE helped Chelsea into the last eight as the Capital One Cup served up another thriller.

But Blues boss Roberto Di Matteo continued to moan about refs despite being given TWO penalties by Lee Mason.

RDM moaned: “Nobody is talking about the handball in the second half when we should have had another penalty.

“We’ve had two situations in the last 12 months — at QPR last season and against United on Sunday — when we were not treated fairly.

“Fernando Torres should never have been sent off on Sunday and last year at QPR Jose Bosingwa’s sending off was harsh.

“We’d just like to be treated fairly.”

Chelsea, who needed a last-ditch penalty from Eden Hazard to take the tie to extra time, now travel to Leeds for their quarter-final next month

Di Matteo refused to respond to their manager Neil Warnock’s comments that Chelsea are a disgrace for accusing ref Clattenburg.

The Italian would only say: “With Chelsea and Leeds there is a bit of history. It should be a very interesting game.”

United boss Alex Ferguson blamed Nani after his side led 3-2 with seconds of normal time remaining.

Fergie said: “Nani decided to try to beat a player and it ended up being a penalty to them.

“You expect to see a game out.”
