Chelsea skipper Terry furious with Liverpool players over booking

Chelsea captain John Terry has accused Liverpool's players of getting him booked during last night's Champions League win at Anfield.

He will miss next week's quarter-final second leg after he was shown a yellow card in last night's 3-1 win.

Terry was left fuming when Reds players protested to the referee about his second-half challenge on Kop keeper Pepe Reina.

He said: "I felt as though I went for the ball, that's all I ever do as a player.

"I've spoke to Reina again and he said it wasn't a yellow card.

"He already knew I was on a yellow card and he was honest with me.

"It reminds of when Liverpool's Xabi Alonso was booked in a similar situation with Eidur Gudjohnsen a couple of years ago.

"He was crying after that game. I'm obviously very disappointed."
