Have England football team ever lost a match with Rio Ferdinand and John Terry in centre defence?
I really am struggling to think of one, 2006 Portugal was a shootout, so doesn't really count.
In Euro 2004 obviously Rio was suspended due to the missed drugs test, There were no losses in qualifying, although Terry had just broke into the team then.
I thought of the 1-0 loss to Northern Ireland in WC 2006 qualifying, but that was Ferdinand and Carragher, there were no other losses in qualifying, and Portugal knocked us out on penalties in the tournament (there were no other losses). In Euro 2008 qualifying we lost at home to Croatia with Lescott and Campbell in centre defence and to Russia with Ferdinand and Campbell.
We also lost away to Croatia, with Terry and Ferdinand in Centre defence, but I am going to add a disclaimer, because we used a very dodgy 3-5-2 formation with Carragher partnering them in the middle so it wasn't exclusively Ferdinand and Terry.
The only competitive match we have ever lost with ONLY Ferdinand and Terry in centre defence was against Ukraine in WC2010 qualifying, when we had already qualified anyway.
Dunno about friendlies, the records are much
I found these friendlies;
France 1-0 England 2008
England 1-2 Germany 2007
Denmark 4-1 England 2005
Spain 1-0 England 2004
All in all it seems to show that despite the critics, England have had a pretty solid streak whilst JT and RF have both played.

I'm sure they must have. If you look for long enough you'll most likely find it.
