LONDON, April 8 (Reuters) - Defender Branislav Ivanovic headed two goals from corners and Didier Droga added the third to give Chelsea a 3-1 away win over Liverpool in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday. Striker Fernando Torres opened the scoring at Anfield after six minutes, firing a right foot shot past Petr Cech after a low cross from full back Alvaro Arbeloa.
Chelsea’s deserved equaliser came when stand-in right back Ivanovic rose above Martin Skrtel to head home Florent Malouda’s corner six minutes before halftime.
Ivanovic headed in a Frank Lampard corner just past the hour to put Chelsea ahead and striker Drogba turned in Malouda’s left-wing cross in the 67th minute. (Editing by Justin Palmer;
