Reports that either John Terry or Mark Clattenburg may have mellowed since their Premier League days appear greatly exaggerated.
The pair both formed a reputation for refusing to back down during their time in the top flight — Terry as the iconic captain of all-conquering Chelsea and Clattenburg as the top referee of his day.
They clashed numerous times during the peak of their careers and they were at it again on Monday in the Baller League at the Copper Box Arena in London.
Terry's 26ers kicked off the evening action with an enthralling 3-3 draw that saw them concede a late equaliser to RTW's Erghis Pepy as the two share the spoils — and their first point of the six-a-side tournament.
