Terry on target to exorcise Moscow demons

SEVEN days too late for Chelsea’s liking, John Terry was presented with an opportunity to score and duly obliged.

There were no tears at Wembley last night but in putting England on the road to beating the United States at Wembley, Terry exorcised a few demons created by his shoot-out miss that cost victory for the Londoners in the match that so crushingly ended in defeat to Manchester United.

Steven Gerrard added a second, in a very impressive introduction to the left-wing role, to leave the rump of Capello’s squad heading off for a goodwill meeting with Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday in a contented mood, and the Italian believing improvement is being maintained.
