Chelsea skipper Terry denies spitting at Tevez

Chelsea captain John Terry has denied claims he spat at Manchester United striker Carlos Tevez in the scuffle that led to Didier Drogba being sent-off in the Champions League final.

The incident is being investigated by UEFA, but Terry said: "There was some pushing and shoving, I admit that.

"But no spitting, that is not my style. No way would I spit at another player."

TV pictures appear to show Terry raising his arm and spit in the direction of Tevez, but Chelsea are demanding proof from Tevez in a bid to clear his name.
