Chelsea and Galatasaray were supposed to play the second leg of a Champions League round of 16 tie at Stamford Bridge. But since the occasion marked Didier Drogbas return to his former home for the first time since he scored the decisive penalty in the 2012 Champions League final, sealing his place as one of Chelseas most beloved players of all time, Galatasaray rolled over, Chelsea won 2-0 and the primary function of the night became to honor Drogba. First, Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay presented Drogba (accompanied by his son Isaac) with a trophy. This started the process of melting Drogbas heart and ensuring he wouldnt score any goals. He was also given a standing ovation. How can you knock a team out of the Champions League when they give you a trophy and a standing ovation? You cant. This should be a thing clubs do before big games even if the opponents best player ever played for them before. .
