STOKE, England - John Terry scored his first league goal of the season to help Chelsea beat Stoke 2-0 Monday and restore its three-point lead atop the Premier League.Terry put his side ahead in just the second minute with a powerful header from a corner, and Cesc Fabregas doubled the lead in the 78th to make sure Chelsea re-established the gap to second-place Manchester City.In between, it was a feisty and physical game at the Britannia Stadium and Stokes Phil Bardsley was lucky to escape with just a yellow card after a reckless tackle on Eden Hazard in the 20th minute.A victory means a bit more than the three points, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said. We won for sure in one of the most difficult places to win.Mourinhos side could have had more goals, with Diego Costa failing to finish a couple of good opportunities, and were generally very much in control throughout the game, showing their ability to cope with a combative Stoke outfit on a chilly evening. Stoke beat Arsenal 3-2 here after jumping out to a 3-0 lead by halftime, and won by the same scoreline against Chelsea at home last season.But the London club had no such problems on this occasion, with Terry providing the visitors with a perfect start. Fabregas swung in a corner and Terry got the better of Geoff Cameron to head in his first Premier League goal since December 2013. The Chelsea captain has now scored in the last 15 Premier League seasons.And the visitors could have added a second goal just after the half-hour mark as Nemanja Matic made a fine tackle to rob Cameron of possession, the Blues broke away and the ball was fed to Costa, who was through one on one with Asmir Begovic but sent his shot narrowly wide.Charlie Adam had Stokes best chance for an equalizer midway through the second half but sent his shot from just outside the area curling just wide of the post.Shortly afterward, Chelsea made the game safe as the ball came to Fabregas in the box from Eden Hazard and the Spaniard took one touch before scuffing a shot that deceived Begovic to roll in.Stoke is 13th in the table after 17 games. Chelsea, meanwhile, is hoping to continue the trend that the team that tops the standings at Christmas goes on to clinch the title. Seven of the last 10 leaders at Christmas did so, including Chelsea in 2004-05, 05-06 and 09-10.What we did in the past is not important, Mourinho said. Whats important is this season, and this season we are top of the league since day one and we are there because we are playing really well. Jesus Manuel Corona Jersey .

The Sweden international sat out PSGs midweek draw with Lille because of his bothersome heel problem, but he returned to the fold to score in the 34th and 48th minutes after Nantes took an early lead through Alejandro Bedoya. PSG moves to the top of Ligue 1 with the win, two points clear of Marseille, which hosts Metz on Sunday with a chance to regain pole position. Bedoya jolted the game to life inside of eight minutes on Saturday when a ball fell to him 25 yards from goal which resulted in a well-struck shot into the far corner beyond the reach of PSG goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu. Oswaldo Vizcarrondo thought he had given Nantes a two-goal lead when he found the back of the net minutes later, only for the goal to be ruled out for offsides. PSG responded and leveled the contest before the breakk through Ibrahimovic, who arrived in front of goal to poke home a low cross from Lucas in the 34th minute.dddddddddddd Nantes goalkeeper Remy Riou kept his level with a fine stop on Thiago Silvas header late in the first half, but Riou was picking the ball out of his net in the 48th when he could do nothing to keep out a wonderful free kick from Ibrahimovic. PSG took control of things from there, and the hosts were unfortunate not to add to their lead as Lucas missed the net by inches with a half volley before a glaring miss from Ezequiel Lavezzi in the 68th. Montpellier rolled to a 4-0 win at Rennes with four different players providing the goals, while St Etienne used a 58th-minute goal from Ricky van Wolfswinkel to slip past Bastia, 1-0. Cheick Diabate scored twice in the span of three second-half minutes to help Bordeaux to a 3-2 comeback win over Lorient, and Nice went on the road to notch a 3-2 win over Caen thanks to a goal from Alassane Plea 16 minutes from time.
