A departure fit for a king.
Didier Drogba exited the pitch at Stamford Bridge one last time Sunday, having announced earlier in the day that Chelsea's fixture versus Stoke City would mark his last game for the club where he won the 2011-12 Champions League, four Premier League titles, three League Cup trophies, and four FA Cups.
With silverware practically falling out of his pockets, Drogba's teammates ensured he received a proper send-off upon being replaced by Diego Costa in the 30th minute and carried him toward the touchline as applause echoed around Stamford Bridge.
It's been real, Drogba.
