Terry hails Blues’ ‘best ever’ defensive display

CAPTAIN John Terry hailed Chelsea’s performance as among their “best ever” after they stifled free-scoring Barcelona with a disciplined defensive display.

Terry was hailed as “inspirational” by coach Guus Hiddink after the game but the Chelsea defender was quick to shift the praise on to the entire team.

Barcelona had scored in every home game this season and were last held at home by Manchester United at the same stage of the competition last season.
