What courageous man to step up when everyone would be having shivery feet....and Alas he had to slip then!!!! If you want a new definition of bad luck then it has to be John Terry's penalty kick....
On a positive side though, yesterdays match has cleared all the doubts as to who is the better Centre Back - Terry or Ferdinand. And more importantly who is a better leader of men - Terry or Ferdinand. Hope Mr.Capello saw yesterdays game with his spectacles in place....
am really wondering why it had to be John Terry, had it been some other player, there could have been just an element of doubt in it, but him ; a minor mistake that costs a lot. And what about Anelka misses, he should be better off in Bolton. huh... By the way, that man Didier Drogba(though am one of his greatest fan) does not deserve any glory yesterday, totally unpardonable behaviour.

I guess, Sheva should have been on instead of Anelka, not that he is in a great form, but for the fact that in 2004 grand finale, against Juve and Buffon it was he who tuk the final kick and had won the champs league for Milan. But then the flip side would be that he was the man who tuk the final kick against liverpool at the same stage and a great save from dudek won liverpool the cup. The fact would be that sheva could have handled the pressure better than Anelka at such a big stage. Sad that it had to be terry, heart sinks for him. He was one of the main reasons that the match did not end in regulation time, what a clearence it was when there was none else around the chelsea goal. Some day Terry will win at a similar stage, I hope.
