Double injury rocks Chelsea, Mourinho furious about poor pitch

Both players were taken off during Chelsea’s Champions League clash against Maccabi in Israel last night. John Terry had to be stretchered off in the second half.

Mourinho has confirmed that Ramires and Terry have both picked up injuries but the extent of the injuries can only be determined after a scan.

The Portuguese manager was furious with the condition of the pitch and blamed the turf for the injuries. He was also spotted covering holes on the pitch with grass and stamping on them.

‘I was saying before, such a beautiful stadium, such a fantastic public,’ said the Chelsea boss.
