Mykhailo Mudryk shared a heartwarming message After a failed attempt to imitate Didier Drogba resulted in embarrassment
Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk was on the cusp of scoring his first goal for the club, but VAR ruled it out for offside. Despite this disappointment, Blues fans flooded social media to console the 22-year-old. Mudryk has gradually built his match fitness since joining the club, impressing in glimpses, but has been eager to score his first goal. He came close when Enzo Fernandez passed him through the Leicester City defence, and he slotted the ball into the bottom left-hand corner before celebrating with a knee slide reminiscent of Didier Drogba. Fans were quick to console Mudryk after the disallowed goal, but he went on to provide an assist to Mateo Kovacic’s volley. Football.london has compiled some of the best reactions to Mudryk’s Drogba-inspired celebration.
