Former Chelsea defender, David Luiz, has revealed that the club owner, Roman Abramovich, told him to go away he doesn’t want to see his face on the eve of their UEFA Champions League final in 2012.
The Brazilian went on to score Chelsea’s first goal in the penalty shootout against Bayern Munich after Juan Mata’s opening miss, putting the Blues on the path for their first major European triumph. Despite ending up a club hero thanks to his notable efforts throughout the 120 minutes and penalty shootout against Bayern, Abramovich was too nervous about exchanging pleasantries before kick-off.
“He said, ‘Go away, I don’t want to see your face, I am so nervous!’ I said to him, ‘Don’t worry, we will win’.”
