‘It’s not the UCL final’ - John Terry takes a dig at Arsenal following celebration after Chelsea victory
The Gunners sealed a 4-2 aggregate victory over the Blues, with Kai Havertz's late goal at the Emirates sparking jubilant scenes.
The win sends Mikel Arteta's side to Wembley, where they will face Manchester City in a bid to claim their first major trophy since 2020.
Mikel Arteta’s men are still fighting on all fronts, with the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup still on the cards.
Terry takes a swipe at Arsenal
Following the match, Arteta expressed his delight, highlighting the importance of the victory for team morale. "It's the best vitamins that we can put in our bodies because we're playing every three days," he told reporters.
"The fact that we worked so hard to achieve those moments and to have these moments together is just magical. You can see the joy, the smiles, the energy from everyone."
However, Terry was less than impressed with the scale of the celebrations. Speaking on TikTok, the former Chelsea captain offered a blunt assessment.
"I just want to talk on Arsenal's celebrations after, let's not forget, it’s the Carabao Cup, it’s not the Champions League final," Terry stated. "They celebrated far too much for me, I think that showed the pressure that's on them at the moment."
Despite his criticism, Terry acknowledged Arsenal's strong form this season. "I've said it before, Arsenal are looking the best team by far in the Premier League so far...
Looking ahead, Arsenal will put their cup final ambitions aside as they continue their Premier League title challenge at home against Sunderland.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will look to recover from the semi-final exit when they travel to Molineux to take on Wolves.
