Moscow has no tears and rain. Terry talks about the loss points in the 2008 Champions League final: the road is slippery and the heart is broken

John Terry reviewed the penalty mistake in the 2008 Champions League final. Terry missed the championship due to a penalty mistake in Chelsea's Champions League final in 2008. 17 years later, he still misses it.

"The Champions League trophy is the hardest to win, and it means a lot to everyone," Terry said in an interview with FourFourTwo. "It feels strange to have a Champions League final with a team from the same country, but it was a great team and the game was very difficult. I didn't intend to play in the first five rounds of penalty kicks, but Drogba was sent off. To this day, I still remember that loss Wrong. To be honest, although not as often as before, I still think of it when I wake up, and I can see that picture. "

" Looking back on my career, the trophy is of great significance, but those missed trophys will also make you feel uneasy, and I will never forget that time. I don't think I can let go."

Despite the heartbreaking defeat in 2008, Terry finally won the Champions League in 2012. Despite his suspension in the final, Terry won a championship medal after Chelsea defeated Bayern Munich.

He said that the victory made him more likely to accept Moscow's mistakes: "I was heartbroken at the time. I am grateful that we won the championship in 2012. It helped me a lot."

"Until today, I'm not completely relieved. It's interesting that as a player, you have a lot of highlights, but the troughs will accompany you for a longer time. That night we lost the game and returned to the hotel, the coach asked everyone to have a drink in the bar, but I stayed in the room because I didn't dare to face my teammates. In the end, I went and had beer with everyone."

"I remember standing in the room on the 25th floor of the hotel, overlooking Moscow, and asking myself 'for What rained then? Why did I slip?’ The saddest thing was three days later, we played a friendly match with the United States at Wembley Stadium, and it turned out to be a 1-1 draw, and I also scored a header. If two goals in my career could be exchanged, they were these two. ”

He also told Sky Sports within a few months after the game: “Wake up every morning, the first thing that comes to mind is this. I am still very disappointed. But I am a big man with personality, and now I have to deal with this problem myself. I look forward to the arrival of the new season and hope to erase the bitter disappointment of the club and myself.”
