Never before have we seen one image so perfectly describe a game. This picture of John Terry and Raheem Sterling does more than any match report could.

As the first leg of a League Cup semi-final, tonight’s Liverpool v Chelsea match was everything we had hoped it might be. Intense, closely fought, physical…

That description could equally apply to this picture of John Terry and Raheem Sterling.

In fact, this picture does a perfect job of summing up tonight’s encounter. Basically, Chelsea had to bend over backwards to stop Liverpool and (when you look at the stats) no-one’s quite sure how they did it.

Again, just take a look at the picture…
