It was the 88th minute of the second half of the final match of the European Cup, which is now called the Champions League and that even has a song as a tune. Chelsea lost 1 to 0 before the Bayern Munich team that also played at home. And then, the Spaniard Juan Mata took a corner, the ball flew across the area of the rival team and Drogba topped the first post of the goal and put the ball through the squad. Thus, he matched the game and allowed his team to reach the penalties. In that lottery, again Drogba, scored the goal, this time the final. And so it was he and his European champion team that will remain forever recorded in the history of the competition.
Drogba, 34, is from a country in Africa called Ivory Coast and in his childhood he developed a spirit of struggle, sacrifice and effort that has made him a player of exceptional quality.
The title of this article said that Drogba's goal could be taught at school. Why? Because it is a strategy move brilliantly executed by all players although the most prominent are Mata, who puts the ball in that magical way that makes it go parallel to the pitch and away from the goal so that the goalkeeper cannot catch it. Lampard, who is one of the most representative players of Chelsea and who blocks Jérôme Boateng so that he does not disturb the auctioneer and Drogba, who although his teammates have made it easy, makes a dream finish.
Drgoba runs to the ball without losing sight of it and at all times knows what he has to do. Jump and finish hitting him the ball and giving him the appropriate direction so that the ball enters through the Neuer goalkeeper's squad. The zenith plane of the goal can be seen in the attached video and allows you to see the exquisite movements of all players.
And I think that Drogba when putting that goal should feel like the critic that of Ratatouille that he remembered his childhood before a spectacular moment. Because Drogba knew that goal left the cup of the big ears very close to the team in which he has developed and has valued him as a great player since he started with five years.
I think that Drogba is one of these players who combine exceptional quality as a footballer, a spirit of struggle and sacrifice and an ambition to achieve success. Very important values that we always have to keep in mind.
