Chelsea Vs. Napoli, 2012 UEFA Champions League: John Terry Goal Has Chelsea Ahead

Chelsea have gotten off to a perfect start in the second half, and as things stand at Stamford Bridge, they are going through to the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. The Blues' old guard has them on top of Napoli 2-0 on the night, and the tie is locked up at 3-3 on aggregate. Because of Chelsea's away goal, they are ahead in the tie.

Didier Drogba netted the first goal in the first half and the second has come by way of John Terry -- or England's Brave John Terry, as the meme requires me to state. He headed in an absolutely fantastic corner kick by Frank Lampard to put his team in front.

This is very bad news for Napoli, and not just because they’re currently not going through. They struggle to score when their opposition isn’t giving them space to counter into.
