article: All eyes were on John Terry this afternoon as he made the short trip across London to face QPR in the west London derby. Loftus Road was the place where the Chelsea skipper racially abused then QPR defender Anton Ferdinand in October 2011. Ferdinand's brother Rio was injured for Sunday's match. Terry, who has been a crucial part of Jose Mourinho's Premier League title bid this season, played the full 90 minutes however as Chelsea scraped a 1-0 win, but how did he get on... John Terry (centre) celebrates at the final whistle with Didier Drogba (left) and Branislav Ivanovic . Reception . There was a hostile introduction for Terry as the teams lined up, before a cacophony of boos rang out around the ground as he touched the ball in the opening minute. There was, however, no noticeable reaction from any of Chris Ramsey's players until Charlie Austin made himself known to the centre-back late in the first half with a robust challenge. Terry experienced a hostile atmosphere at Loftus Road, but put in a good display at the back for Chelsea . Temperament . It was a moment to cherish for the QPR fans as Austin responded to an arm across the chest by shoving Terry to the ground off the ball. The Chelsea skipper momentarily lost his cool and berated the assistant referee to the delight of the crowd. His battle with the striker continued into the second half, with the pair taken aside for a word after squaring up to each other but it was Terry who had the last laugh as Cesc Fabregas' late equaliser sealed three points. The Chelsea captain rises above Bobby Zamora to head the ball away as he dominated at the back . Performance . The former England captain was rarely troubled by Bobby Zamora and Charlie Austin. Although the pair were prominent throughout, a lack of pace meant Terry and partner Gary Cahill were able to deal with everything thrown at them even though they were bailed out by Thibaut Cortouis at times. There was a nervy moment in the first half when a long ball over the top caught out the 34-year-old, and he was lucky his misjudged touch didn't cost the side as Cahill covered, but it was a fairly comfortable day for the defender. The Chelsea captain was made to stretch occasionally, but he and Gary Cahil dealt with QPR's threat well . Conduct . Despite an obvious attempt from Austin to get under the skin of Terry, he largely ignored the attention surrounding him and focused solely on leading his side to an important win while handling the occasion with maturity. There were wild celebrations from Terry at the final whistle as he responded to the constant jeers. Terry's combative encounter with Charlie Austin attracted the attention of referee Andre Marriner .
