There's a reason no one's ever retained the Champions League title Not even Oscar's golden performance or the return of good luck charm John Terry could prevent Chelsea from facing up to the harsh reality that defending the Champions League is something that has never been done. Juve seemed to relish the chance to grab the scalp of the champions and they, sort of, did. John Obi Mikel said he would not make up an excuse for the way he carelessly gave the ball away in the build-up to Juventus's second goal but if he wanted to blame it on the pressure of going into the game as holders he could probably get away with it.
