Tottenham striker Adebayor still can't believe Chelsea skipper Terry's amazing block

Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor is still getting to grips with Chelsea captain John Terry's amazing goal line clearance on Thursday night.

Terry blocked Adebayor's shot on 91 minutes to secure a point for the visitors.

"That was a difficult one," Adebayor told the Spurs website. "I knew what I was going to do in my head and when the ball came, that's what I did.

"When I saw the ball on its way I thought 'yes', I was excited, I thought the ball was going into the back of the net.

"But unfortunately, John Terry was there. I don't have a clue where he came from. I don't even know how he saved the ball. Fair play to him."
