John Terry became the latest football star to take the Ice Bucket
Challenge following Chelsea's 3-1 victory over Burnley in their
opening game of the Premier League season.
The Blues captain managed to thank Ashley Cole and 'Stan' Petrov
for nominating him to do the dare before tipping a bucket of
freezing water over his head and letting out a scream that would
scare a banshee.
While most players who have taken the part in the challenge have
nominated with good grace, the 33-year-old appeared to take the
opportunity to get his own back on a former manager.
The veteran defender nominated Frank Lampard, John Obi Mikel...
and Rafa Benitez. It is no secret that the pair failed to see eye to eye after the
Spaniard's brief tenure as 'interim manager' during the 2012-13
season when Terry lost his place in the team before being restored
by Jose Mourinho.
Despite winning the Europa League that season, Benitez failed to
win over the Chelsea faithful after comments made when he was
Liverpool manager. He left Stamford Bridge to find some success
in winning the Copa Italia with Serie A side Napoli.
Other players to have taken the challenge include Cristiano
Ronaldo, Neymar, Daniel Sturridge, Darren Fletcher and Paul
Scholes. |
