ENGLAND continued their fine run under Fabio Capello with a 2-1 win against Germany in BerlinThe England skipper rose to head his side’s winner six minutes from time, having been involved in a king-size cock-up with keeper Scott Carson which gifted Germany their equaliser.
Nobody on England’s side hurts more in defeat and enjoys victory more than Chelsea captain Terry.
His ability to recover from despair is becoming legendary.
He was distraught last May after missing the penalty in the Champions League shootout against Manchester United which would have won Chelsea the trophy.
But in his very next game, a week later for England against the USA, an emotional Terry headed in the first goal in a 2-0 win.
This is a captain who leads by example and the back-up men who did the country proud last night had the ideal man to show them exactly what the Three Lions badge means.
The victory completed a magnificent year in charge for boss Fabio Capello, who can do no wrong even when he is without most of his senior players. In his 10 games since taking over, the Italian has won eight, drawn one and lost one. Impressive in anyone’s language
