The other goals came from legendary Chelsea captain John Terry, Gary Cahill who netted the third one and Tiago Mendes who scored the fourth goal to make the night even darker for Bayern Munich legends.

Former Super Eagles captain John Mikel Obi starred as well and bossed the midfielder for Chelsea like he did in 2012 when the Blues won their first-ever UEFA Champions league title.

Ex-Ivory Coast international Salomon Kalou was also there for the team but everyone’s favourite Didier Drogba could not attend the evening as he was not available.
