CHELSEA CAN DEFEND!
John Terry got the nod from Mourinho for a match that Chelsea simply could not afford to lose.
Terry had been missing for recent Premier League fixtures with Tottenham and Bournemouth after picking up an ankle injury while Costa was benched for those two games.
But the captain was back in training this week and his manager decided to throw him in back in at the deep end against the Portuguese giants.
This decision was rewarded as his captain and Kurt Zouma put in a colossal performance.
This looked like the Chelsea of old. Terry flying in to block shots and Zouma getting every last ditch tackle spot on.
Even Ivanovic played well this evening. This was a much better defensive display and Porto didn’t look like scoring.
