LONDON - Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho didnt hold back in blasting his players after an embarrassing 4-2 loss to third-tier Bradford in the FA Cup on Saturday, saying they should be ashamed and describing the result as a disgrace.The Premier League leaders squandered a 2-0 lead after 38 minutes in the fourth-round match at Stamford Bridge as Mourinho lost against lower-league opposition for the first time in his two spells at Chelsea.I repeat the word that I used yesterday in case we lost — its a disgrace, Mourinho said. A sporting disgrace, but its a disgrace.Chelsea, which has won the FA Cup three times in the past five years, had won all 10 of its Premier League games at home this season. It is only the second home defeat in domestic football for Mourinho as Chelsea manager — after losing to Sunderland last season — and the first time Mourinho has ever seen one of his teams concede four goals in a home game.I could find in my bad feeling with the game, and with the result, space to feel happy for them. Im honest, Mourinho said. By another side, I feel ashamed and I think the players should feel exactly the same as I feel.This is the beauty of football, the beauty of the FA Cup. It happens more in the FA Cup than any other country.Mourinho made nine changes to the team that started the 1-1 draw against Liverpool in the first leg of the League Cup semifinal on Tuesday. The second leg is this Tuesday.The team I select is a good team, Mourinho said. When we go to the other players, the other players have to be ready to play for Chelsea, to play any game.If they cannot play against a team from the Championship or League One or League Two, what do we do? ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates -- Rory McIlroy birdied his last two holes to post a 5-under 67 and lie two shots off the lead two rounds into the Abu Dhabi Championship on Friday. At 7 under overall in the European Tour event, McIlroy was rapt to be in contention for a second win in three tournaments. Playing partner Phil Mickelson was also happy, though in relief to make the cut by two shots at 1 under with a 70 after a first-round 73. "Im really glad I made the cut and I now have a chance over these next two days, because I kind of keyed in on something with my swing starting to feel much better," Mickelson said. "I really need these two days to get my game in shape." Mickelson was impressed with McIlroys form. "His game looks really sharp and his driving was impeccable," Mickelson said of McIlroy. Tied for the lead were Scotlands Craig Lee (67) and Spains Rafa Cabrera-Bello (68) at 9 under, a stroke ahead of Englands Danny Willett (63), who eagled the par-5 8th hole at National Course beside seven birdies. McIlroy was sharing fourth with Argentinas Ricardo Gonzalez (66) and Denmarks Thomas Bjorn (70). He was holding the end-of-2013 form that saw him come from behind and defeat Masters champion Adam Scott in the Australian Open in Sydney last month. "Its a great position to be in, as Im only a ffew off the lead, so Im excited," McIlroy said.dddddddddddd He was happy to compare with how he missed the cut a year ago, when he debuted new equipment and left himself and sponsor Nike red-faced. In that humbling display of consecutive 75s were two double bogeys and seven bogeys. "Coming off the last green last year, after 36 holes, I was deflated to say the least," he said. "The week didnt go as how I imagined it or how I planned. But its so much better this year. Im happy with how Im playing. Im striking the ball really well. I got a few putts to drop on the back nine, which was nice. And yeah, I mean, I feel like if I can keep hitting it the way I have been, Ive got a great chance to win in this tournament." While McIlroy won two tournaments ago in Sydney it has been 13 months since his last success on the European Tour when he birdied his closing five holes in winning the season-ending World Tour Championship in nearby Dubai. Cabrera-Bello is also no stranger to winning in the Emirates, having captured the 2012 Dubai Desert Classic. The overnight leader dropped a shot at his last hole, the ninth, to fall into a tie with Lee, who seeks his first win on tour. "I have been practicing hard the last two weeks and trying also to get back into shape, so Im glad that is all paying off," Cabrera-Bello said.
