Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill has accused Chelsea's John Terry of making a ``horrendous'' tackle that could have ended the career of James Milner, his England teammate.
O'Neill says Terry should have been sent off for a lunging tackle that caught Milner on his lower leg just below the knee in Saturday's FA Cup semifinal, which Chelsea won 3-0. Instead, Terry got a yellow card.
Describing the challenge as horrendous and ``desperately poor,'' the Villa manager says Milner was ``tremendously lucky that his career was intact.'' Milner was very sore but the club doctor told him he was fortunate to escape serious injury.
