Didier Drogba Dives In Box, Misses Penalty, Blames Ground Instead Of God
The former Chelsea-legend-turned-temporary-Chinese-league-player is back in European soccer after a winter transfer to Turkish champions Galatasaray SK. The striker was subbed in today in the 65th minute with his team down 1-0 in a league match against Gençlerbirliği.
Shortly thereafter, he saved the ball off the end line in his opponent's box before taking another touch, getting bumped, and diving (slipping?) on the soggy pitch. The ref incredulously called a kick from the penalty spot. Drogba, usually a good bet from 12 yards out, hoofed the ball wide left.
Drogba obviously forgot the tenet "Ball Don't Lie" from the Book of Sheed, and after missing, turned around, pointed to a grass clump accusingly, and then kicked the shit out of it. Also, someone get Mobb Deep to rap over the background music.
