Didier Drogba is probably the greatest soccer, rather football player ever from Africa and he proved why in the Champions League final. Drogba scored the equalizer against Bayern Munich in the 88th minute of off Chelsea's only Corner Kick of the game to force extra time. Drogba then won it for Chelsea on the Blues' final penalty kick, beating Bayern Munich's keeper Mauel Neuer to complete a storybook ride to Chelsea's first Champions League Championship. Chelsea needed a goal from Fernando Torres in stoppage time in the second leg against Barcelona to just get to the Champions Final. Bayern dominated most of the game but did not capitalize on their chances until the 83rd when Thomas Muller headed one passed Petr Cech. To make things even more amazing for the Chelsea victory is that the game was in Bayern's home stadium, Allianz Arena. Drogba's contract is now up with Chelsea, but even if he leaves the Blues, he will forever be in Chelsea lore.
