Terry forgets private troubles to head winner for Chelsea
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 31 - 01 - 2010

Chelsea skipper John Terry, whose personal troubles made newspaper headlines Saturday, ensured he would also dominate the back pages when he headed Chelsea's late winner in a 2-1 Premier League success at Burnley.
The England captain was named Friday as the player behind a gagging injunction involving his private life following a High Court hearing in London.
After the order was lifted newspapers published pages of details about his alleged extramarital relationship with a “famous” woman.
The controversy did not seem to affect his performance on the pitch, though, and when he was left unmarked at an 82nd minute corner he powerfully headed home the winning goal.
The victory moved the west London side four points clear of champion Manchester United at the top of the table.
Asked about Terry's personal troubles, Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti told ESPN: “That is his private life.
“About his work we don't have to say anything. He is a fantastic professional, a fantastic captain, he did a great job for us tonight. All of Chelsea support him and his family.”
After 23 matches, Chelsea has 54 points, Manchester United 50 and Arsenal 49, with Arsenal hosting United Sunday.
Earlier on Saturday, attention was focused on the race for fourth place with current occupants Tottenham Hotspur, and the chasing Liverpool and Aston Villa all in action.
Liverpool and Villa gained ground on Spurs who drew 1-1 at Birmingham City. Liverpool beat Bolton Wanderers 2-0 at Anfield and Aston Villa also closed the gap with a 2-0 win at Fulham.
Spurs stayed fourth with 42 points from 24 games ahead of Liverpool on 41. Villa has 40, with one game in hand, while Manchester City is on 38 with three games in hand.
Barca beats Sporting Gijon
Pedro Rodriguez scored to give Barcelona a 1-0 win over Sporting Gijon Saturday and extend its unbeaten run to 20 matches in the Spanish league.
Rodriguez put Barcelona ahead in the 30th minute, gathering a long pass from Andres Iniesta and galloping from a deep position into the area before shooting past goalkeeper Juan Pablo Colinas.
Barcelona leads the standings with 52 points, eight more than second-place Real Madrid.
Earlier, Luis Garcia's goal gave Espanyol a 1-0 win against Athletic Bilbao at its Cornella-El Prat Stadium.
Genoa frustrates Napoli
Napoli missed the chance to move up to joint-second in Serie A after hitting the woodwork twice in a 0-0 home draw with Genoa Saturday.
The host, level on points with third-placed AS Roma, extended its unbeaten league run to 15 matches but could easily have secured victory having wasted other good chances.
Driving rain in Naples and the continued absence of injured forward Ezequiel Lavezzi also made life difficult for Walter Mazzarri's Champions League-chasing side.
In Saturday's other match, Bari inflicted Palermo's first Serie A defeat in eight games with a classy 4
