Captain fantastic John Terry spared Jose Mourinho's blushes after earning Chelsea a 3-2 win - with two goals - against League Two minnows AFC Wimbledon.

The Blues were undone by an Alan Bennett header inside 40 seconds before Matt Tubbs crashed a penalty past Mark Schwarzer.

Terry pulled one back for his side and Mohamed Salah levelled things up with seven minutes left on the clock.

Only for Terry to grab the glory - after a summer spent on holiday instead of at the World Cup – and help his side keep face.

Abou Diaby completed 45 minutes for Arsenal as they kicked off their pre-season with a 2-0 win over Conference South Boreham Wood.

And he almost marked his return with a goal in the 57th minute but his fierce 25-yard drive was tipped over by James Russell, in goal for the hosts, managed by former Arsenal winger Ian Allinson.

But Russell could do nothing to prevent Swedish teen Kristoffer Olsson from opening the scoring in the 68th minute when he latched onto a sublime Tomas Rosicky through-ball before lifting a delicate finish over the onrushing keeper.
